Math HESI A2 Practice Test

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To find the rate of calories burned per mile, divide the total calories burned (2276) by the total miles ran (21.4). So, 2276 / 21.4 = 106.4. This means the runner burns approximately 106.4 calories per mile. Choice A (106.4) is correct as it represents the correct calculation result. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not match the calculated value based on the given information.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To convert quarts to ounces, you need to know that 1 quart equals 32 ounces. Therefore, 1.5 quarts would be 1.5 x 32 = 48 ounces. So, the correct answer is C (48 ounces). Choice A is incorrect as it incorrectly converts quarts to ounces. Choice B is half of the correct conversion. Choice D is double the correct conversion.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To calculate the profit, we first find the total cost of cultivation: 240 acres * $188.99/acre = $45,357.60. Then, we find the total revenue from selling the yield: 240 acres * 60 bushels/acre * $5.67/bushel = $81,648. Finally, we subtract the cost from the revenue to get the profit: $81,648 - $45,357.60 = $36,290.40. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B is incorrect because it miscalculates the profit by not subtracting the cost from the revenue. Choice C is incorrect as it overestimates the profit. Choice D is incorrect as it is not the accurate profit value based on the given information.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To produce 6 eggs in 24 hours, 2 chickens are needed. Therefore, to produce 24 eggs, we need (2 chickens / 6 eggs) * 24 eggs = 8 chickens. So, the correct answer is A. Choice B is incorrect because it does not account for the correct ratio of chickens to eggs. Choice C is incorrect as it overestimates the number of chickens needed. Choice D is incorrect as it does not consider the ratio of chickens to eggs accurately.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To convert kilometers to meters, we need to multiply the number of kilometers by 1000 since there are 1000 meters in 1 kilometer. So, 2 kilometers x 1000 meters/kilometer = 2000 meters. Therefore, the correct answer is C: 2000 meters. Choice A (100 meters) is incorrect as it does not account for the conversion factor of 1000 meters in 1 kilometer. Choice B (200 meters) is incorrect for the same reason. Choice D (3000 meters) is incorrect as it goes beyond the actual conversion calculation.
