ATI TEAS Math Practice Test
The math section of the TEAS exam is difficult for a lot of students and you might be in the same boat.
Nursing and allied health schools want to make sure you can handle the course load during your program. There is no doubt, you will have a lot of math between med dosage and converting to the metric system doing well on this section demonstrates that you have the ability to do well in the program.
The TEAS math is 38 questions in 57 minutes.
This section can be hard to complete in the timeframe that they allot you.
Being able to set up equations and solve them or create equations from word problems and solve them are examples of the types of problems you need to become better at solving quickly.
The key for beating the clock is to practice with timed practice tests as much as you can.
The timed aspect of a TEAS math practice test will help you become more comfortable working within the time constraints.
Our free teas math practice test has a scored report that breaks down every question you answered by the time you took to answer it.
With this information you can start to get an idea of where you took too long and got hung up, once you know the types of questions that slowed you down you can figure out how to get faster.
A calculator will be provided to you on the test and this video goes over what you need to know about using it on the test:
Numbers and Basic Operations
TEAS Math Practice Test
Multiplication and Division
We don’t have to get into this one too much, you should know from elementary and middle school the basics of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.
However sometimes it can get a little tricky with the signed multiplication and division. So watch out for that because it does trip some people up.
Within this topic you will also need to know the order of operations like the back of your hand, that is the PEMDAS which stands for parentheses, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction. You will see a lot of questions on the order of operations.
One way people remember it is with the mnemonic Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally.
You will see a lot of questions on this so make sure you know it really well, this is one of the biggest tips we can give you on how to get a great score on the TEAS math section.
@smart_edition_academy Let’s do a TEAS 7 practice test problem. This one is about how to solve a order of operations problem. You may remember this as “PEMDAS”. You will definitely encounter math problems like this not only on the ATI TEAS 7, but also on the HESI and Kaplan entrance exams. #prenursingschool #nursingadmissions #nursingschoolapplications #prenursingmajor #prenursingschool ♬ original sound - SE Nursing
Decimals and Fractions
The TEAS online course lesson for this topic will introduce the basics of decimals and fractions. It also demonstrates:
- changing decimals to fractions
- changing fractions to decimals
- converting between fractions decimals, and percentages
A really good tip and strategy for you to use while you’re taking the test is to use the calculator that you will have available on your screen.
For a lot of fractions, you can just turn that into a decimal on the calculator.
So if you have something like 5/8 + 2/9 , you can divide 5 by 8 to get the decimal, and then also divide 2 by 9 to get that decimal and then you can add those two decimals together. This approach might make a lot more sense for you.
It’s a great way to double check yourself as well. The only thing to be careful of is the test is timed so it might take a little more time to punch it into the calculator, but if you have a certain question you really want to double check yourself on this is a good option.
You can also use this same tip for ordering fractions from least to greatest.

Addition and Subtraction of Fractions
You will see questions on addition and subtraction of fractions which includes:
- subtracting a fraction from a fraction
- adding fractions with like denominators
- subtracting fractions without like denominators
Multiplication and Division of Fractions
This topic will require you to be familiar with:
- multiplying a fraction by a fraction
- multiplying a fraction by a whole or a mixed number
- dividing fraction by a fraction
- dividing a fraction by a whole or mixed number
Ratios, Proportions, and Percentages
The TEAS online course lesson for this topic reviews percentages and ratios and their application to real-world problems. It also examines proportions and rates of change.
You’ll be asked to convert numbers to percentages and vice versa. For instance, 0.67 is equal to 0.67 × 100 = 67%, meaning 67 out of 100.
You will also see ratio questions which express the relationship between two numbers and is expressed using a colon or fraction notation.
A proportion is an equation of two ratios and you’ll see this on the test as well.
Rates of change is another type of question you might encounter on the test.
A rate of change example would be: If an automobile increases its speed from 50 mph to 100 mph in 10 seconds, the rate of change of its speed (its acceleration) is?

@smart_edition_academy On the TEAS exam, you will have to answer questions related to percentages, ratios, & decimals. Here is how you solve a problem like this that you’ll see! #teas7 #teas7exam #smarteditionacademy ♬ original sound - SE Nursing
Algebra
TEAS Math Practice Test
Algebra will be a good portion of the TEAS math section but don’t worry it’s going to be mostly high school level algebra. So you should have seen a lot of this type of math already.
Equations with one variable
These are going to be your linear equations and linear inequalities, so you need to be very comfortable with them. There’s a couple different types of linear equations.
- One-step linear equation
- Two-step linear equation
- Multi-step linear equation
Word Problems
You’re going to have real world mathematical problems that you’ll have to solve.
What you need to be able to do quickly is to turn that real-world math problem into an equation.
So you need to be able to pull out the numbers and you need to know whether you need to be multiplying or dividing or something else, and then turn it into an equation and be able to solve.
You will need to use estimation for some of these problems, while others will include real word applications involving integers, fractions, and decimals.
