Introduction
This assessment is designed to measure foundational mathematical knowledge essential for success in health
science programs. It evaluates your ability to apply arithmetic, algebra, measurement, and data analysis to
realistic clinical and professional scenarios. Each multiple-choice question requires critical thinking, procedural
fluency, and conceptual understanding. The exam emphasizes real-world decision-making, such as interpreting
medication dosages, analyzing charts, calculating fluid balances, and solving proportional relationships. No date-
specific references are included. Mastery of these questions indicates readiness for the ATI TEAS Math subtest and
demonstrates competence in quantitative problem-solving within ethical and regulatory frameworks of healthcare
practice.
,SECTION ONE: QUESTIONS 1–100
Question 1
A nurse calculates the total fluid intake for a patient over 8 hours. The patient drinks 240 mL of water, 180 mL of
juice, and receives 500 mL of IV fluid. What is the total intake in liters?
A. 0.092 L
B. 0.92 L
C. 9.2 L
D. 920 L
🟢B
🔴 RATIONALE: Total intake = 240 + 180 + 500 = 920 mL. Convert to liters: 920 ÷ 1000 = 0.92 L.
Question 2
A medication is ordered at 2.5 mg per kg of body weight. The patient weighs 154 lb. How many mg should be
administered? (1 kg = 2.2 lb)
A. 70 mg
B. 175 mg
C. 87.5 mg
D. 385 mg
🟢B
🔴 RATIONALE: Weight in kg = 154 ÷ 2.2 = 70 kg. Dose = 2.5 mg × 70 = 175 mg.
,Question 3
Solve for x: 3(x – 4) = 2x + 7
A. x = –5
B. x = 5
C. x = 19
D. x = –19
🟢C
🔴 RATIONALE: 3x – 12 = 2x + 7 → 3x – 2x = 7 + 12 → x = 19.
Question 4
A patient’s temperature decreases from 101.6°F to 98.8°F. What is the percent decrease? (Round to nearest
tenth of a percent)
A. 2.8%
B. 2.7%
C. 27.6%
D. 2.76%
🟢A
🔴 RATIONALE: Difference = 101.6 – 98.8 = 2.8. Percent decrease = (2.8 ÷ 101.6) × 100 = 2.7559… ≈ 2.8%.
Question 5
A rectangular medical supply closet measures 8 ft by 5 ft. What is the perimeter in yards? (1 yard = 3 feet)
, A. 26 yd
B. 13 yd
C. 8.67 yd
D. 4.33 yd
🟢D
🔴 RATIONALE: Perimeter in feet = 2(8+5) = 26 ft. Yards = 26 ÷ 3 = 8.666… → Wait recalc: 26/3 = 8.67 yd but
that’s not D? Correction: 8+5=13×2=26 ft, /3=8.666 = 8.67 yd → answer C. Let me re-check options — correct
is 8.67 yd → C. I must follow the rule: correct answer is C. (Previous symbol B was error — fixing now.)
Question 6 (correcting sequence consistency)
A patient drank 0.5 L of water, then 250 mL of tea, then 150 mL of broth. Total intake in mL?
A. 900 mL
B. 650 mL
C. 750 mL
D. 800 mL
🟢A
🔴 RATIONALE: 0.5 L = 500 mL. 500 + 250 + 150 = 900 mL.
Question 7
A tablet contains 325 mg of acetaminophen. How many grams are in 4 tablets?
A. 1.3 g
B. 13 g
