HESI A2 Practice Test Math

1. What is the result of dividing 40.3 by 4.8?

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To divide 40.3 by 4.8, you perform the calculation: 40.3 ÷ 4.8 ≈ 8.4. Therefore, the correct answer is 8.4. Choice A (7.5) is incorrect as it is the result of dividing 40.3 by 5.4. Choice C (6.2) is incorrect as it is the result of dividing 40.3 by 6.5. Choice D (9.1) is incorrect as it is the result of dividing 40.3 by 4.4.

2. A plan for a barn is drawn on a 1:30 scale. If the width of a barn door on the plan measures 3 inches, what is the actual width of the finished door?

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The scale of 1:30 means that 1 inch on the plan represents 30 inches in actual size. If the width of the barn door on the plan is 3 inches, the actual width is calculated by multiplying 3 inches by the scale factor (30), giving 90 inches. To convert inches to feet, divide by 12 (since 12 inches = 1 foot), resulting in 90 inches ÷ 12 = 7.5 feet. Therefore, the correct answer is 10 feet (option B), not 7.5 feet. Option A (90 inches) is the result before converting to feet, option C (9 feet) is the incorrect conversion if the initial calculation was done correctly, and option D (7.5 feet) is the incorrect conversion of the initial calculation.

3. 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.

4. A birdbath has a hemispherical bowl with a diameter of 30cm. What is its volume?

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To find the volume of a hemispherical bowl, we use half the formula for a sphere's volume: (2/3) * π * (radius)^3. Given the diameter is 30cm, the radius is half of that, which is 15cm. Substitute the radius into the formula: (2/3) * π * (15cm)^3 ≈ 2700 cu cm. Therefore, the correct volume is approximately 2700 cu cm. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not correctly calculate the volume of the hemispherical bowl.

5. Add: 1.332 + 0.067

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find the sum of 1.332 and 0.067, add the two numbers correctly: 1.332 + 0.067 = 1.399. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B (1.4) is incorrect because it rounds down the sum, not considering the precise value. Choice C (1.402) is incorrect as it results from adding 1.332 and 0.070 instead of 0.067. Choice D (1.5) is not the correct sum of the given numbers.
