TEAS Math Practice Test #3 2

Question 1

Which of the following is the correct order of operations for: 6 + 2 × (8 − 3)²?

Accepted Answer

106

Answer

Follow PEMDAS: Parentheses first: (8−3) = 5. Exponent: 5² = 25. Multiply: 2 × 25 = 50. Add: 6 + 50 = 56. Wait — that gives 56. The correct answer is 56 (option A/C). Using PEMDAS: 6 + 2×25 = 6+50 = 56.

Question 2

A car travels 315 miles on 10.5 gallons of gas. What is the car's fuel efficiency in miles per gallon?

Accepted Answer

30 mpg

Answer

Divide distance by gallons: 315 ÷ 10.5 = 30 miles per gallon.

Question 3

If 40% of a number is 60, what is the number?

Accepted Answer

150

Answer

Set up the equation: 0.40 × n = 60. Solve: n = 60 ÷ 0.40 = 150.

Question 4

Which inequality is represented by the statement: "A patient must consume fewer than 2,000 calories per day"?

Accepted Answer

c < 2,000

Answer

"Fewer than" means strictly less than, represented by <. The symbol ≤ would mean "2,000 or fewer," but "fewer than 2,000" excludes exactly 2,000.

Question 5

What is the mean of the test scores: 82, 91, 78, 95, 84?

Accepted Answer

86

Answer

Mean = sum ÷ count. Sum: 82+91+78+95+84 = 430. Count: 5. Mean = 430 ÷ 5 = 86.
