Numbers and Algebra

A nurse records that 7 of the 20 patients on a unit are scheduled for discharge today. What percent of the patients are scheduled for discharge?

Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C. Write the part over the whole: 7/20. Divide 7 by 20 to get 0.35. Multiply by 100 to convert the decimal to a percent: 0.35 x 100 = 35%. The value 13% comes from subtracting 7 from 20 instead of dividing.Reference: TEAS 7 Math: Numbers and Algebra — fractions, decimals and percents
Numbers and Algebra

Evaluate: -3 + 4 x (-2)^2 - 6 / (-3)

Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A. Exponent first: (-2)^2 = 4, because the negative sign is inside the parentheses. Next multiply and divide: 4 x 4 = 16 and 6 / (-3) = -2. Then add and subtract left to right: -3 + 16 - (-2) = -3 + 16 + 2 = 15. Reading (-2)^2 as -4 gives -17, and dropping the double negative gives 11.Reference: TEAS 7 Math: Numbers and Algebra — order of operations
Numbers and Algebra

A hospital unit keeps a staffing ratio of 2 nurses for every 9 patients. If the unit has 45 patients, how many nurses are needed to keep the same ratio?

Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D. Set up the proportion 2/9 = n/45. Cross-multiply: 9n = 2 x 45 = 90. Divide by 9: n = 10. The answer 5 comes from finding 45 / 9 and forgetting to multiply by 2, and 202.5 comes from inverting the ratio.Reference: TEAS 7 Math: Numbers and Algebra — ratios and proportions
Numbers and Algebra

A patient's weight dropped from 80 kg to 68 kg over a six-month program. What was the percent decrease in the patient's weight?

Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B. Find the change: 80 - 68 = 12 kg. Divide the change by the ORIGINAL value: 12 / 80 = 0.15. Convert to a percent: 0.15 x 100 = 15%. Dividing by the new value (12 / 68) gives about 17.6%, and 85% is the share of the original weight that remains.Reference: TEAS 7 Math: Numbers and Algebra — percent change
Numbers and Algebra

Solve for x: 4(x - 3) + 7 = 2x + 9

Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B. Distribute: 4x - 12 + 7 = 2x + 9, so 4x - 5 = 2x + 9. Subtract 2x from both sides: 2x - 5 = 9. Add 5: 2x = 14. Divide by 2: x = 7. Check: 4(7 - 3) + 7 = 23 and 2(7) + 9 = 23. The answer 14 forgets the final division by 2.Reference: TEAS 7 Math: Numbers and Algebra — one-variable linear equations
Numbers and Algebra

A fitness center charges a one-time $35 sign-up fee plus $22 per month. Maria has paid $211 in total. Which equation can be used to find m, the number of months she has been a member?

Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D. The fee is paid once, so it is a constant: 35. The monthly charge repeats, so it is multiplied by the number of months: 22m. The total paid is their sum: 35 + 22m = 211. Solving gives 22m = 176, so m = 8 months.Reference: TEAS 7 Math: Numbers and Algebra — translating word problems
Numbers and Algebra

Which statement describes all solutions of the inequality -3x + 5 > 17?

Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A. Subtract 5 from both sides: -3x > 12. Divide both sides by -3. Dividing by a negative number reverses the inequality sign, so x < -4. Forgetting to reverse the sign gives x > -4.Reference: TEAS 7 Math: Numbers and Algebra — inequalities
Numbers and Algebra

A provider orders 0.5 mg/kg of a medication for a child who weighs 66 lb. The medication is supplied as 5 mg per mL. Using 1 kg = 2.2 lb, how many mL should be given?

Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C. Convert pounds to kilograms: 66 / 2.2 = 30 kg. Find the dose in mg: 30 x 0.5 = 15 mg. Convert mg to mL: 15 mg / 5 mg per mL = 3 mL. Skipping the pound conversion gives 6.6 mL, and 15 is the dose in mg, not mL.Reference: TEAS 7 Math: Numbers and Algebra — dosage calculation
Numbers and Algebra

Which list shows the numbers 0.45, 3/8, 42% and 2/5 in order from least to greatest?

Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D. Convert every value to a decimal: 3/8 = 0.375, 2/5 = 0.40, 42% = 0.42 and 0.45 stays 0.45. Ordering the decimals from least to greatest gives 0.375, 0.40, 0.42, 0.45, which is 3/8, 2/5, 42%, 0.45.Reference: TEAS 7 Math: Numbers and Algebra — comparing fractions, decimals and percents
Measurement and Data

A tablet contains 0.25 g of an active ingredient. How many milligrams is this?

Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B. There are 1,000 mg in 1 g. Multiply: 0.25 x 1,000 = 250 mg. Moving the decimal point three places to the right gives the same result. The other options move the decimal point the wrong number of places.Reference: TEAS 7 Math: Measurement and Data — metric conversions
Measurement and Data

A patient's water bottle holds 750 mL. Using the conversion 1 fl oz = 30 mL, how many fluid ounces does the bottle hold?

Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C. Each fluid ounce equals 30 mL, so divide the milliliters by 30: 750 / 30 = 25 fl oz. Multiplying instead of dividing gives 22,500, and subtracting 30 from 750 gives 720.Reference: TEAS 7 Math: Measurement and Data — converting between metric and US customary units
Measurement and Data

A rectangular courtyard measures 14 m by 9 m. A square planter that is 3 m on each side sits inside it. What is the area of the courtyard NOT covered by the planter?

Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A. Courtyard area: 14 x 9 = 126 m². Planter area: 3 x 3 = 9 m². Uncovered area: 126 - 9 = 117 m². Subtracting 3 + 3 instead of 3 x 3 gives 120, adding the planter gives 135, and 46 is the courtyard's perimeter.Reference: TEAS 7 Math: Measurement and Data — perimeter and area
Measurement and Data

A cylindrical specimen container has a radius of 3 cm and a height of 10 cm. Using 3.14 for pi, what is its volume?

Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A. Use V = pi x r² x h. Square the radius: 3² = 9. Multiply: 3.14 x 9 x 10 = 282.6 cm³. Using the diameter (6 cm) as the radius gives 1,130.4, and 188.4 is the area of the side (2 x pi x r x h), not the volume.Reference: TEAS 7 Math: Measurement and Data — volume
Measurement and Data

A clinic recorded the number of flu shots given each day: Mon 18, Tue 24, Wed 15, Thu 24, Fri 29. How many more shots were given on Thursday and Friday combined than on Monday and Tuesday combined?

Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C. Add Thursday and Friday: 24 + 29 = 53. Add Monday and Tuesday: 18 + 24 = 42. Subtract: 53 - 42 = 11. The value 53 is only the Thursday-Friday total, and 14 is the range of the whole week (29 - 15).Reference: TEAS 7 Math: Measurement and Data — interpreting tables
Measurement and Data

A pharmacy recorded the wait times, in minutes, of eight customers: 6, 11, 4, 9, 4, 15, 7, 12. What is the median wait time?

Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B. Sort the data: 4, 4, 6, 7, 9, 11, 12, 15. With eight values, the median is the mean of the 4th and 5th values: (7 + 9) / 2 = 8 minutes. The mean is 68 / 8 = 8.5, the mode is 4, and 6.5 comes from taking the middle values without sorting first.Reference: TEAS 7 Math: Measurement and Data — mean, median, mode and range
Measurement and Data

A wellness study recorded weekly exercise and resting heart rate: 1 hour, 78 bpm; 3 hours, 72 bpm; 5 hours, 66 bpm; 7 hours, 60 bpm. Which statement best describes the relationship?

Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D. As exercise hours increase, heart rate decreases, so the relationship is negative. Each step in the table adds 2 hours and the heart rate drops by 6 bpm (78 to 72, 72 to 66, 66 to 60). A drop of 3 bpm would be the change for each single hour, not for every 2 hours.Reference: TEAS 7 Math: Measurement and Data — relationships between variables

Math

What is 0.6 x 0.35?
