HESI A2 Math Practice Test

1. Multiply: 32 × 5 and express the result in decimal form.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To find the product of 32 and 5, you simply multiply the two numbers: 32 × 5 = 160. Therefore, when expressed in decimal form, the answer is 1.6. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not represent the correct multiplication result in decimal form. Choice A is way too small, choice B is also too small, and choice C is close but still not the correct result.

2. Sally eats 3/5 of her lunch. John eats 75%. Who ate more?

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To compare, convert both to decimals or percentages: Sally ate 3/5, which is 0.6 or 60%. John ate 75%. Since 75% is greater than 60%, John ate more than Sally. Thus, the correct answer is A. John. Choice B is incorrect because Sally ate a smaller percentage of her lunch compared to John. Choice C is incorrect as the percentages consumed are different. Choice D is incorrect as one of them ate more.

3. How many feet are in 2 miles?

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To convert miles to feet, multiply the number of miles by the conversion factor of feet per mile. Since there are 5280 feet in 1 mile, to find the number of feet in 2 miles, you multiply 2 by 5280, resulting in 10560 feet. Choice A, 5280 feet, is the conversion factor for 1 mile, not for 2 miles. Choices B and D are incorrect calculations that do not follow the conversion factor correctly.

4. If a dice is rolled, what is the probability of getting an even number?

Correct answer: D

Rationale: When rolling a standard six-sided die, there are three even numbers (2, 4, 6) out of a total of six possible outcomes (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6). The probability of rolling an even number can be calculated as the number of favorable outcomes (3) divided by the total number of outcomes (6), which equals 3/6 = 50%. Therefore, the correct answer is D. Choice A (16%) is incorrect because it does not represent the probability of rolling an even number. Choice B (33%) is incorrect as it does not reflect the correct probability. Choice C (66%) is incorrect as well since it overestimates the probability.

5. Multiply: 3/4 × 1/3.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators together and the denominators together. In this case, 3/4 × 1/3 = (3 × 1) / (4 × 3) = 3/12 = 1/4. Therefore, the correct answer is A: 1/4. Choices B (1/3), C (3/5), and D (3/8) are incorrect because they do not result from the correct multiplication of the given fractions.
