HESI A2 Math Practice Test 2024 Questions
Question 1 of 5
Convert the following military time to regular time: 15:17:52.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To convert military time to regular time, subtract 12 from the hours if it is 13 or greater. In this case, 15:17:52 becomes 3:17:52 PM. Choice A (2:17 PM) is incorrect as it doesn't adjust for the 12-hour conversion. Choice C (5:17 AM) and Choice D (9:17 AM) are incorrect as they don't reflect the correct conversion from military time to regular time.

Question 3 of 5
What is the result of adding 7/21 + 10/21?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: When adding fractions with the same denominator, you simply add the numerators while keeping the denominator the same. In this case, 7/21 + 10/21 = 17/21. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B (15/21) is incorrect because it adds the numerators incorrectly. Choice C (9/21) is incorrect as it does not reflect the sum of the fractions provided. Choice D (10/21) is also incorrect as it does not represent the correct sum of the two fractions.
Question 4 of 5
5\7 + 3\14 = ?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.
Question 5 of 5
What is 7 1/8 + 2 4/12 equal to?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To add mixed numbers, first convert the fractions to a common denominator. The least common denominator between 8 and 12 is 24. Converting 7 1/8 to 7 3/24 (since 1/8 = 3/24) and 2 4/12 to 2 8/24 (since 4/12 = 8/24), we can add the whole numbers separately to get 9. Then, adding the fractions 3/24 and 8/24 gives 11/24. Therefore, 7 1/8 + 2 4/12 equals 9 11/24. Choice A is correct. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not reflect the correct addition of mixed numbers with the appropriate conversion of fractions.
