20 Random Questions

Hints will display for most wrong answers; explanations for most right answers. You can attempt a question multiple times; it will only be scored correct if you get it right the first time.

I used the official objectives and sample test to construct these questions, but cannot promise that they accurately reflect what’s on the real test. Some of the sample questions were more convoluted than I could bear to write. See terms of use. See the MTEL Practice Test main page to view questions on a particular topic or to download paper practice tests.

Your answers are highlighted below.

Question 1

Use the table below to answer the question that follows:

Each number in the table above represents a value W that is determined by the values of x and y. For example, when x=3 and y=1, W=5. What is the value of W when x=9 and y=14? Assume that the patterns in the table continue as shown.

A	$ \large W=-5$ Hint: When y is even, W is even.
B	$ \large W=4$ Hint: Note that when x increases by 1, W increases by 2, and when y increases by 1, W decreases by 1. At x=y=0, W=0, so at x=9, y=14, W has increased by $9 \times 2$ and decreased by 14, or W=18-14=4.
C	$ \large W=6$ Hint: Try fixing x or y at 0, and start by finding W for x=0 y=14 or x=9, y=0.
D	$ \large W=32$ Hint: Try fixing x or y at 0, and start by finding W for x=0 y=14 or x=9, y=0.

Question 1 Explanation:

Topic: Recognize and extend patterns using a variety of representations (e.g., verbal, numeric, pictorial, algebraic) (Objective 0021)

Question 2

Here is a mental math strategy for computing 26 x 16:

Step 1: 100 x 16 = 1600

Step 2: 25 x 16 = 1600 ÷· 4 = 400

Step 3: 26 x 16 = 400 + 16 = 416

Which property best justifies Step 3 in this strategy?

A	Commutative Property. Hint: For addition, the commutative property is $a+b=b+a$ and for multiplication it's $ a \times b = b \times a$.
B	Associative Property. Hint: For addition, the associative property is $(a+b)+c=a+(b+c)$ and for multiplication it's $(a \times b) \times c=a \times (b \times c)$
C	Identity Property. Hint: 0 is the additive identity, because $ a+0=a$ and 1 is the multiplicative identity because $a \times 1=a$. The phrase "identity property" is not standard.
D	Distributive Property. Hint: $ (25+1) \times 16 = 25 \times 16 + 1 \times 16 $. This is an example of the distributive property of multiplication over addition.

Question 2 Explanation:

Topic: Analyze and justify mental math techniques, by applying arithmetic properties such as commutative, distributive, and associative (Objective 0019). Note that it's hard to write a question like this as a multiple choice question -- worthwhile to understand why the other steps work too.

Question 3

The first histogram shows the average life expectancies for women in different countries in Africa in 1998; the second histogram gives similar data for Europe:

How much bigger is the range of the data for Africa than the range of the data for Europe?

A	0 years Hint: Range is the maximum life expectancy minus the minimum life expectancy.
B	12 years Hint: Are you subtracting frequencies? Range is about values of the data, not frequency.
C	18 years Hint: It's a little hard to read the graph, but it doesn't matter if you're consistent. It looks like the range for Africa is 80-38= 42 years and for Europe is 88-64 = 24; 42-24=18.
D	42 years Hint: Read the question more carefully.

Question 3 Explanation:

Topic: Compare different data sets (Objective 0025).

Question 4

Use the four figures below to answer the question that follows:

How many of the figures pictured above have at least one line of reflective symmetry?

A	$ \large 1$
B	$ \large 2$ Hint: The ellipse has 2 lines of reflective symmetry (horizontal and vertical, through the center) and the triangle has 3. The other two figures have rotational symmetry, but not reflective symmetry.
C	$ \large 3$
D	$ \large 4$ Hint: All four have rotational symmetry, but not reflective symmetry.

Question 4 Explanation:

Topic: Analyze and apply geometric transformations (e.g., translations, rotations, reflections, dilations); relate them to concepts of symmetry, similarity, and congruence; and use these concepts to solve problems (Objective 0024).

Question 5

The least common multiple of 60 and N is 1260. Which of the following could be the prime factorization of N?

A	$ \large2\cdot 5\cdot 7$ Hint: 1260 is divisible by 9 and 60 is not, so N must be divisible by 9 for 1260 to be the LCM.
B	$ \large{{2}^{3}}\cdot {{3}^{2}}\cdot 5 \cdot 7$ Hint: 1260 is not divisible by 8, so it isn't a multiple of this N.
C	$ \large3 \cdot 5 \cdot 7$ Hint: 1260 is divisible by 9 and 60 is not, so N must be divisible by 9 for 1260 to be the LCM.
D	$ \large{{3}^{2}}\cdot 5\cdot 7$ Hint: $1260=2^2 \cdot 3^2 \cdot 5 \cdot 7$ and $60=2^2 \cdot 3 \cdot 5$. In order for 1260 to be the LCM, N has to be a multiple of $3^2$ and of 7 (because 60 is not a multiple of either of these). N also cannot introduce a factor that would require the LCM to be larger (as in choice b).

Question 5 Explanation:

Topic: Least Common Multiple (Objective 0018)

Question 6

Which of the following is the equation of a linear function?

A	$ \large y={{x}^{2}}+2x+7$ Hint: This is a quadratic function.
B	$ \large y={{2}^{x}}$ Hint: This is an exponential function.
C	$ \large y=\dfrac{15}{x}$ Hint: This is an inverse function.
D	$ \large y=x+(x+4)$ Hint: This is a linear function, y=2x+4, it's graph is a straight line with slope 2 and y-intercept 4.

Question 6 Explanation:

Topic: Distinguish between linear and nonlinear functions (Objective 0022).

Question 7

Which of the following is equivalent to $ \dfrac{3}{4}-\dfrac{1}{8}+\dfrac{2}{8}\times \dfrac{1}{2}?$

A	$ \large \dfrac{7}{16}$ Hint: Multiplication comes before addition and subtraction in the order of operations.
B	$ \large \dfrac{1}{2}$ Hint: Addition and subtraction are of equal priority in the order of operations -- do them left to right.
C	$ \large \dfrac{3}{4}$ Hint: $ \dfrac{3}{4}-\dfrac{1}{8}+\dfrac{2}{8}\times \dfrac{1}{2}$=$ \dfrac{3}{4}-\dfrac{1}{8}+\dfrac{1}{8}$=$ \dfrac{3}{4}+-\dfrac{1}{8}+\dfrac{1}{8}$=$ \dfrac{3}{4}$
D	$ \large \dfrac{3}{16}$ Hint: Multiplication comes before addition and subtraction in the order of operations.

Question 7 Explanation:

Topic: Operations on Fractions, Order of Operations (Objective 0019).

Question 8

Which of the numbers below is the decimal equivalent of $ \dfrac{3}{8}?$

A	0.38 Hint: If you are just writing the numerator next to the denominator then your technique is way off, but by coincidence your answer is close; try with 2/3 and 0.23 is nowhere near correct.
B	0.125 Hint: This is 1/8, not 3/8.
C	0.375
D	0.83 Hint: 3/8 is less than a half, and 0.83 is more than a half, so they can't be equal.

Question 8 Explanation:

Topic: Converting between fractions and decimals (Objective 0017)

Question 9

In January 2011, the national debt was about 14 trillion dollars and the US population was about 300 million people. Someone reading these figures estimated that the national debt was about $5,000 per person. Which of these statements best describes the reasonableness of this estimate?

A	It is too low by a factor of 10 Hint: 14 trillion $ \approx 15 \times {{10}^{12}} $ and 300 million $ \approx 3 \times {{10}^{8}}$, so the true answer is about $ 5 \times {{10}^{4}} $ or $50,000.
B	It is too low by a factor of 100
C	It is too high by a factor of 10
D	It is too high by a factor of 100

Question 9 Explanation:

Topics: Estimation, Scientific Notation in the real world (Objective 0016).

Question 10

What fraction of the area of the picture below is shaded?

$q21 fraction area$

A	$ \large \dfrac{17}{24}$ Hint: You might try adding segments so each quadrant is divided into 6 pieces with equal area -- there will be 24 regions, not all the same shape, but all the same area, with 17 of them shaded (for the top left quarter, you could also first change the diagonal line to a horizontal or vertical line that divides the square in two equal pieces and shade one) .
B	$ \large \dfrac{3}{4}$ Hint: Be sure you're taking into account the different sizes of the pieces.
C	$ \large \dfrac{2}{3}$ Hint: The bottom half of the picture is 2/3 shaded, and the top half is more than 2/3 shaded, so this answer is too small.
D	$ \large \dfrac{17}{6} $ Hint: This answer is bigger than 1, so doesn't make any sense. Be sure you are using the whole picture, not one quadrant, as the unit.

Question 10 Explanation:

Topic: Models of Fractions (Objective 0017)

Question 11

The "houses" below are made of toothpicks and gum drops.

Which of the following does not represent the number of gumdrops in a row of h houses?

A	$ \large 2+3h$ Hint: Think of this as start with 2 gumdrops on the left wall, and then add 3 gumdrops for each house.
B	$ \large 5+3(h-1)$ Hint: Think of this as start with one house, and then add 3 gumdrops for each of the other h-1 houses.
C	$ \large h+(h+1)+(h+1)$ Hint: Look at the gumdrops in 3 rows: h gumdrops for the "rooftops," h+1 for the tops of the vertical walls, and h+1 for the floors.
D	$ \large 5+3h$ Hint: This one is not a correct equation (which makes it the correct answer!). Compare to choice A. One of them has to be wrong, as they differ by 3.

Question 11 Explanation:

Topic: Translate among different representations (e.g., tables, graphs, algebraic expressions, verbal descriptions) of functional relationships (Objective 0021).

Question 12

A cylindrical soup can has diameter 7 cm and height 11 cm. The can holds g grams of soup. How many grams of the same soup could a cylindrical can with diameter 14 cm and height 33 cm hold?

A	$ \large 6g$ Hint: You must scale in all three dimensions.
B	$ \large 12g$ Hint: Height is multiplied by 3, and diameter and radius are multiplied by 2. Since the radius is squared, final result is multiplied by $2^2\times 3=12$.
C	$ \large 18g$ Hint: Don't square the height scale factor.
D	$ \large 36g$ Hint: Don't square the height scale factor.

Question 12 Explanation:

Topic: Determine how the characteristics (e.g., area, volume) of geometric figures and shapes are affected by changes in their dimensions (Objective 0023).

Question 13

The picture below shows identical circles drawn on a piece of paper. The rectangle represents an index card that is blocking your view of $ \dfrac{3}{5}$ of the circles on the paper. How many circles are covered by the rectangle?

$q22 fraction dots covered$

A	4 Hint: The card blocks more than half of the circles, so this number is too small.
B	5 Hint: The card blocks more than half of the circles, so this number is too small.
C	8 Hint: The card blocks more than half of the circles, so this number is too small.
D	12 Hint: 2/5 of the circles or 8 circles are showing. Thus 4 circles represent 1/5 of the circles, and $4 \times 5=20$ circles represent 5/5 or all the circles. Thus 12 circles are hidden.

Question 13 Explanation:

Topic: Models of Fractions (Objective 0017)

Question 14

Which of the following is closest to the height of a college student in centimeters?

A	1.6 cm Hint: This is more the height of a Lego toy college student -- less than an inch!
B	16 cm Hint: Less than knee high on most college students.
C	160 cm Hint: Remember, a meter stick (a little bigger than a yard stick) is 100 cm. Also good to know is that 4 inches is approximately 10 cm.
D	1600 cm Hint: This college student might be taller than some campus buildings!

Question 14 Explanation:

Topic: Estimate and calculate measurements using customary, metric, and nonstandard units of measurement (Objective 0023).

Topic: Apply LCM in "real-world" situations (according to standardized tests....) (Objective 0018).

Question 16

The window glass below has the shape of a semi-circle on top of a square, where the side of the square has length x. It was cut from one piece of glass.

What is the perimeter of the window glass?

A	$ \large 3x+\dfrac{\pi x}{2}$ Hint: By definition, $\pi$ is the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter; thus the circumference is $\pi d$. Since we have a semi-circle, its perimeter is $ \dfrac{1}{2} \pi x$. Only 3 sides of the square contribute to the perimeter.
B	$ \large 3x+2\pi x$ Hint: Make sure you know how to find the circumference of a circle.
C	$ \large 3x+\pi x$ Hint: Remember it's a semi-circle, not a circle.
D	$ \large 4x+2\pi x$ Hint: Only 3 sides of the square contribute to the perimeter.

Question 16 Explanation:

Topic: Derive and use formulas for calculating the lengths, perimeters, areas, volumes, and surface areas of geometric shapes and figures (Objective 0023).

Question 17

Use the expression below to answer the question that follows.

$\large \dfrac{\left( 155 \right)\times \left( 6,124 \right)}{977}$

Which of the following is the best estimate of the expression above?

A	100 Hint: 6124/977 is approximately 6.
B	200 Hint: 6124/977 is approximately 6.
C	1,000 Hint: 6124/977 is approximately 6. 155 is approximately 150, and $ 6 \times 150 = 3 \times 300 = 900$, so this answer is closest.
D	2,000 Hint: 6124/977 is approximately 6.

Question 17 Explanation:

Topics: Estimation, simplifying fractions (Objective 0016).

Question 18

The "houses" below are made of toothpicks and gum drops.

How many toothpicks are there in a row of 53 houses?

A	212 Hint: Can the number of toothpicks be even?
B	213 Hint: One way to see this is that every new "house" adds 4 toothpicks to the leftmost vertical toothpick -- so the total number is 1 plus 4 times the number of "houses." There are many other ways to look at the problem too.
C	217 Hint: Try your strategy with a smaller number of "houses" so you can count and find your mistake.
D	265 Hint: Remember that the "houses" overlap some walls.

Question 18 Explanation:

Topic: Recognize and extend patterns using a variety of representations (e.g., verbal, numeric, pictorial, algebraic). (Objective 0021).

Question 19

Use the table below to answer the question that follows:
