HESI A2 Math Practice Test
1. A medication dosage is listed as 1/2 teaspoon. What is the equivalent dosage in milliliters (1 teaspoon = 5ml)?
- A. 1.25ml
- B. 2.5ml
- C. 3.75ml
- D. 5ml
Correct answer: B
Rationale: Rationale: Given that 1 teaspoon is equal to 5ml, and the medication dosage is listed as 1/2 teaspoon, we need to find half of 5ml. 1/2 of 5ml = 5ml / 2 = 2.5ml Therefore, the equivalent dosage in milliliters for 1/2 teaspoon is 2.5ml.
2. Round to the tenths place: What is 6.4% of 32?
- A. 1.8
- B. 2.1
- C. 2.6
- D. 2.0
Correct answer: B
Rationale: To find 6.4% of 32, first calculate 6.4% as a decimal (0.064) and then multiply it by 32 to get 2.048. When rounding to the tenths place, 2.048 is rounded to 2.1 because the digit after the tenths place is 8, which is equal to or greater than 5. Choice A is incorrect as it does not reflect the accurate calculation. Choices C and D are also incorrect because they do not match the correct result of multiplying 6.4% by 32 and rounding to the tenths place.
3. Calculate the product of (99)(0.56) =
- A. 99.30
- B. 99.56
- C. 55.44
- D. 199.54
Correct answer: C
Rationale: To find the product of 99 and 0.56, multiply the two numbers: 99 x 0.56 = 55.44. Therefore, the correct answer is 55.44.
4. Convert the decimal 0.98 to a percent.
- A. 98%
- B. 9%
- C. 98
- D. 99%
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.
5. Which number is the highest among 0.077, 0.777, 0.08, and 0.87?
- A. 0.077
- B. 0.777
- C. 0.08
- D. 0.87
Correct answer: D
Rationale: To determine the highest number among 0.077, 0.777, 0.08, and 0.87, we compare the numbers. 0.87 is greater than 0.777, 0.08, and 0.077, making it the highest number. Choice A (0.077), Choice B (0.777), and Choice C (0.08) are lower numbers compared to 0.87, so they are incorrect.
