HESI A2 Practice Test Math Questions
Question 1 of 5
Which of the following is equivalent to 0.0009?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: To convert 0.0009 to a percentage, you need to multiply by 100. This gives 0.0009 as 0.09%. Therefore, choice C is the correct answer. Choice A, 0.009%, is incorrect because it represents 0.009, not 0.0009. Choice B, 0.9%, is incorrect as it represents 0.9, which is a different value. Choice D, 9%, is also incorrect as it represents 9, not 0.0009.
Question 2 of 5
Erin has 6.25 peach pies. She gives Rose 3.75 of the peach pies. How many pies does Erin have left?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To find how many pies Erin has left, subtract 3.75 from 6.25: 6.25 - 3.75 = 2.5 peach pies. Erin has 2.5 peach pies left, which rounds down to 2 pies, making choice A the correct answer. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not reflect the correct subtraction result.
Question 3 of 5
Find x. 120:x = 40:0.5.
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: To find x, set up the proportion and solve for x: 120/x = 40/0.5. Cross multiply to get 120 * 0.5 = 40x. This simplifies to 60 = 40x. Divide by 40 to isolate x, giving x = 60/40 = 1. Therefore, the correct answer is C, which is 1. Choice A (60) is incorrect because it does not match the correct calculation. Choice B (0) is incorrect as the calculation results in x = 1, not 0. Choice D (25) is incorrect as it does not match the correct calculation of x = 1.
Question 4 of 5
Convert the decimal 0.98 to a percent.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To convert a decimal to a percent, you multiply the decimal by 100. In this case, 0.98 100 = 98%. Therefore, the correct answer is A, which is 98%. Choice B (9%) is incorrect as it results from an error in calculation. Choice C (98) is incorrect as it lacks the percent symbol. Choice D (99%) is incorrect as it is not the equivalent percentage of 0.98.
Question 5 of 5
How many pints are in 56 ounces?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To find out how many pints are in 56 ounces, you need to divide 56 by 16 (as there are 16 ounces in a pint). This results in 3.5 pints, making choice B the correct answer. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately calculate the conversion from ounces to pints.
