Test mode and practice mode
In test mode you answer every question first and see your score, the time you took and the answers at the end. In practice mode you press Check after each answer to see right away whether it is correct, with the explanation.
How answers are scored
For questions with a number as the answer, you can type a whole number, a decimal such as 2.5, or a fraction such as 3/4. A dollar or pound sign is ignored, and a fraction and its decimal value count as the same answer. Multiple choice questions have one correct choice.

Answers and explanations
| Question | Answer | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 11/12 | 2/3 = 8/12 and 1/4 = 3/12. 8/12 + 3/12 = 11/12. |
| 2 | 0.3 | 75 × 4 = 300, and there are three decimal places, so the answer is 0.300, or 0.3. |
| 3 | 75 | 18 ÷ 24 = 0.75, which is 75%. |
| 4 | 20 | There are 7 parts. One part is 4 mL, so the water is 5 × 4 = 20. |
| 5 | 2,500 | 1 litre is 1,000 millilitres, so 2.5 litres is 2,500 millilitres. |
| 6 | 70 | 154 ÷ 2.2 = 70 kg. |
| 7 | 2 | 500 ÷ 250 = 2 tablets. |
| 8 | 900 | 15 × 60 = 900 mg. |
| 9 | 0.375 | 3 ÷ 8 = 0.375. |
| 10 | 4.7 | The hundredths digit is 7, so round up: 4.7. |
| 11 | 84 | The total is 336 and there are 4 scores, so the mean is 84. |
| 12 | 40 | Each nurse sees 8 patients, so 5 nurses see 40. |
| 13 | 30 | The increase is 15. 15 ÷ 50 = 0.3, which is 30%. |
| 14 | 6 | Add 6 to get 4x = 24, then divide by 4: x = 6. |
| 15 | 125 | 1,000 ÷ 8 = 125 mL per hour. |
Tips for TEAS math
- Write the units next to every number, then cancel them as you convert.
