HESI A2 Math Practice Test 2023 Questions
Question 1 of 9
A train takes 1.5 hours at a constant speed of 65 mph to arrive at the destination. How many miles did the train travel?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To calculate the distance traveled, multiply the speed by the time taken: 65 mph 1.5 hours = 97.5 miles. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B (100 miles) is incorrect as it results from rounding up, which is not necessary. Choice C (98 miles) and Choice D (95 miles) are incorrect as they do not reflect the correct calculation based on the given speed and time.
Question 2 of 9
How many liters are in 8,000 milliliters?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: There are 1,000 milliliters in a liter. To convert milliliters to liters, you divide by 1,000. Therefore, 8,000 milliliters · 1,000 = 8 liters. This makes option B the correct answer. Option A, 0.8 liters, is incorrect as it is 1/10th of the correct answer. Option C, 0.8 liters (repeated), is also incorrect. Option D, 0.08 liters, is incorrect as it is 1/100th of the correct answer.
Question 3 of 9

Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.
Question 4 of 9
What is 80% of $500?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: To find 80% of $500, you multiply 0.8 by 500. Therefore, 0.8 x 500 = $400. This means that option D, $400, is the correct answer. Option A, $425, is incorrect because it is higher than the calculated value. Option B, $450, is also higher than the correct answer. Option C, $350, is lower than the calculated value. Hence, the correct answer is D, $400.
Question 5 of 9
What factor is used to convert pounds to kilograms?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.
Question 6 of 9
What is 25% of 200?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To find 25% of a number, you multiply the number by 0.25. So, to calculate 25% of 200, you do 0.25 200 = 50. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B (60) is incorrect as it is the result of calculating 30% of 200. Choice C (25) is incorrect as it represents 12.5% of 200. Choice D (30) is incorrect as it is the result of calculating 15% of 200.
Question 7 of 9
What is the sum of 1/3, 1/4, and 1/6?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To find the sum of 1/3, 1/4, and 1/6, we need to first find a common denominator. The least common multiple of 3, 4, and 6 is 12. So, we rewrite the fractions with the common denominator: 1/3 = 4/12, 1/4 = 3/12, and 1/6 = 2/12. Adding these fractions together gives us 4/12 + 3/12 + 2/12 = 9/12, which simplifies to 3/4 or 1/2. Therefore, the correct answer is 1/2. Choice A (5/12) is incorrect because it does not represent the sum of the fractions given. Choices C (1/3) and D (1/4) are also incorrect as they are individual fractions and do not represent the sum of the fractions provided.
Question 8 of 9
Add 2\3 + 1\6 + 2\5.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.
Question 9 of 9
Subtract 17 2\3 - 8 5\9.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.
