HESI A2 Math Practice Test
1. What is the result of dividing 2,032 by 25?
- A. 91 r3
- B. 81 r28
- C. 81 r7
- D. 9 r3
Correct answer: C
Rationale: When dividing 2,032 by 25, you find that 25 goes into 2,032 a total of 81 times without exceeding it. The remainder is 7, not 28 as stated in choice B. This is because 25 * 81 = 2,025, leaving a difference of 7, not 28. Choice A and D are incorrect because they do not correctly represent the division result of 2,032 by 25.
2. What is the perimeter of a garden bed with a side length of 8 meters?
- A. 16m
- B. 24m
- C. 32m
- D. 64m
Correct answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: 24m. The perimeter of a square is found by adding up all its sides. In this case, since the garden bed has a side length of 8 meters, the perimeter would be 8m + 8m + 8m + 8m = 24m. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly calculate the perimeter of a square with a side length of 8 meters.
3. A family uses 12 gallons of water every day. How many gallons do they use in a non-leap year?
- A. 4,120 gallons
- B. 4,380 gallons
- C. 3,840 gallons
- D. 4,350 gallons
Correct answer: B
Rationale: To determine the total gallons the family uses in a non-leap year, you have to multiply the daily consumption by the number of days in a non-leap year. So, 12 gallons/day x 365 days = 4,380 gallons used per year. Therefore, the correct answer is B. Choice A is incorrect as it provides an inaccurate total by not considering the total days in a year. Choice C is incorrect as it offers a lower value due to not multiplying the daily usage by the total days in a year. Choice D is incorrect as it doesn't accurately calculate the total gallons used in a non-leap year.
4. Convert the percentage to a decimal: 38% =
- A. 0.38
- B. 3.8
- C. 0.038
- D. 38.0
Correct answer: A
Rationale: To convert a percentage to a decimal, you divide by 100. In this case, 38% divided by 100 equals 0.38. Moving the decimal point two places to the left converts the percentage to a decimal. Choice B is incorrect because it incorrectly moves the decimal point one place to the left. Choice C is incorrect as it moves the decimal point three places to the left. Choice D is incorrect as it does not convert the percentage to a decimal.
5. Convert the following military time to regular time: 15:17:52.
- A. 2:17 PM
- B. 3:17 PM
- C. 5:17 AM
- D. 9:17 AM
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.
