Free TEAS 7 Math Practice Test
TEAS math is arithmetic and light algebra with a four-function calculator on screen, so it rewards reps more than talent. The seven free practice questions below span the two content areas the section tests: numbers and algebra, and measurement and data.
Work through them one at a time, with a worked solution the moment you answer. Nothing here is taken from the live exam; every item is written for RedRubric and mapped to ATI’s published content outline.
Which of the following is equivalent to 45%?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Correct answer: B, 0.45
45% means 45 out of 100, so divide by 100 to get 0.45. Option a shifts the decimal one place too far right, option c shifts it one place too far left, and option d leaves the value unconverted.
Solve for x: 3x - 7 = 14.
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Correct answer: B, 7
3x = 21, so x = 7.
A trail mix recipe uses 3 cups of nuts for every 5 cups of dried fruit. If a batch uses 40 cups of dried fruit, how many cups of nuts are needed?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Correct answer: C, 24 cups
Setting up 3/5 = x/40 gives x = 24 cups of nuts. Option b inverts the ratio before solving, option a stops after finding the scale factor (40/5 = 8) without multiplying by 3, and option d multiplies 3 and 40 together instead of solving the proportion.
Which list correctly orders the values 7/20, 0.36, 34%, and 0.345 from least to greatest?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Correct answer: D, 34%, 0.345, 7/20, 0.36
Converting each value to a decimal gives 7/20 = 0.35, 0.36 stays 0.36, 34% = 0.34, and 0.345 stays 0.345. Ordered from least to greatest: 0.34, 0.345, 0.35, 0.36, or 34%, 0.345, 7/20, 0.36. Option b is fully reversed, and options c and a each swap two values out of place.
A survey recorded the pain levels, on a scale of 1 to 10, reported by 10 patients: 2, 5, 5, 7, 5, 8, 6, 4, 7, 9. What is the mode of the pain levels?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Correct answer: A, 5
The value 5 occurs three times, more than any other value, so the mode is 5. Option b is the median (sorted: 2, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 7, 7, 8, 9, giving (5 + 6)/2 = 5.5), option c is the mean (58 / 10 = 5.8), and option d is the range (9 - 2 = 7), none of which is the mode.
A nurse must give a patient a total of 750 mg of medication, split into 3 equal remaining doses, after already giving the patient 150 mg earlier in the day. Which expression correctly finds the size of each remaining dose?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Correct answer: D, (750 - 150) / 3
The 150 mg already given must be subtracted from the 750 mg total before dividing the remainder into 3 equal doses: (750 - 150) / 3 = 200 mg. Option b divides first and then subtracts the whole 150 mg, option c divides only the 150 mg due to missing parentheses, and option a incorrectly adds the already-given dose instead of subtracting it.
A rectangular garden measures 10 m by 6 m. A semicircular pond with a diameter of 6 m is cut out of one end. Using pi ≈ 3.14, what is the remaining area of the garden, rounded to the nearest whole square meter?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Correct answer: A, 46 square meters
Rectangle area = 10 x 6 = 60 m^2. The pond radius is 3 m, so the semicircle area = 0.5 x 3.14 x 3^2 = 14.13 m^2. Remaining area = 60 - 14.13 = 45.87, which rounds to 46 m^2. Option b mistakenly subtracts a full circle's area instead of a semicircle (60 - 3.14 x 3^2 = 32). Option c mistakenly uses the diameter (6 m) as the radius for the semicircle (60 - 0.5 x 3.14 x 6^2 = 3). Option d adds the pond area instead of subtracting it (60 + 14.13 = 74).

What’s on the TEAS math section
The ATI TEAS 7 Mathematics section is 38 questions in 57 minutes, of which 34 are scored. It spans 2 content areas.
- Numbers and Algebra. Fractions, decimals, percentages, ratios, and one-variable equations from real-world problems.
- Measurement and Data. Read tables and graphs, work with statistics, calculate geometry, and convert between units.
What students ask about TEAS math.
TEAS math questions, answered.
How many math questions are on the TEAS 7?
The math section has 38 questions in 57 minutes, and 34 of them are scored. A four-function on-screen calculator is provided.
What math is on the TEAS test?
Numbers and algebra is the bulk of it, then measurement and data. There is no trigonometry or calculus, so the content is arithmetic, proportions, basic algebra, and reading data.
Is TEAS math hard?
It is arithmetic and basic algebra with a calculator, so it is very learnable. The challenge is speed and setting word problems up correctly, both of which practice fixes.
Can you use a calculator on the TEAS math section?
Yes. A four-function on-screen calculator is provided, so the arithmetic is not the hard part; translating the word problems is.
