HESI A2 Math Practice Test 2023
1. How many ounces are in 4.5 quarts?
- A. 120 ounces
- B. 120 ounces
- C. 144 ounces
- D. 128 ounces
Correct answer: C
Rationale: There are 32 ounces in a quart, so to find out how many ounces are in 4.5 quarts, you need to multiply 4.5 by 32. 4.5 quarts * 32 ounces/quart = 144 ounces. Therefore, the correct answer is 144 ounces. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly calculate the conversion from quarts to ounces.
2. Which of these percentages equals 1.25?
- A. 1250%
- B. 25%
- C. 50%
- D. 125%
Correct answer: D
Rationale: To convert 1.25 to a percentage, multiply by 100. Therefore, 1.25 equals 125%. The correct answer is D because 125% is the percentage that represents 1.25. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect. A (1250%) is 10 times greater than the correct answer, B (25%) is 100 times smaller, and C (50%) is 2 times smaller than the correct percentage equivalent of 1.25.
3. Subtract 2 5\8 - 7\8 and reduce.
- A. 1 & 5\8
- B. 1 & 1\4
- C. 1 & 6\8
- D. 1 & 3\4
Correct answer: A
Rationale: Subtract the fractions first: 2 5\8 - 7\8 = 1 & 5\8.
4. How many milliliters are in 4 liters?
- A. 40 milliliters
- B. 40 milliliters
- C. 4000 milliliters
- D. 4 milliliters
Correct answer: C
Rationale: To convert liters to milliliters, you must remember that 1 liter is equal to 1,000 milliliters. Therefore, to find out how many milliliters are in 4 liters, you multiply 4 by 1,000. This gives you a total of 4,000 milliliters in 4 liters. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly convert liters to milliliters. A and B incorrectly represent 40 milliliters, which would be the result if you mistakenly multiplied by 10 instead of 1,000. Choice D is even further from the correct answer, as it suggests only 4 milliliters, which is significantly less than the actual conversion of 4 liters to milliliters.
5. If 30% of a given number is 18, what is the full number?
- A. 60
- B. 30
- C. 40
- D. 45
Correct answer: A
Rationale: If 30% of a number is 18, you can find the full number by dividing 18 by 0.30 (the decimal equivalent of 30%). This calculation results in 60. Therefore, the full number is 60. Choice B (30) is the result if 30% of the number itself was calculated, not the full number. Choices C (40) and D (45) are incorrect and do not align with the given information.
