Practice HESI A2 Math Test

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To convert a decimal to a percent, you multiply by 100 or move the decimal point two places to the right. In this case, 0.64 becomes 64%. Therefore, the correct answer is 64%. Choice A, 0.64%, is incorrect because it does not convert the decimal to a percent. Choice B, 6.4%, is incorrect as it mistakenly moves the decimal point only one place. Choice D, 0.064%, is incorrect as it moves the decimal point three places instead of two.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To find the sum, you add the numbers 3.7, 7.289, and 4 together. 3.7 + 7.289 + 4 equals 14.989. The correct answer is 14.989 because it includes all decimal places from the sum of the numbers provided. Choice B (5.226) is incorrect as it doesn't account for the sum of the given numbers. Choice C (15.0) is incorrect as it rounds the sum to the nearest whole number, losing the decimal precision. Choice D (5.012) is incorrect as it doesn't reflect the correct sum of the decimal numbers.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To convert a percentage to a decimal, you divide the percentage by 100. Therefore, 38% as a decimal is 0.38 (38 � 100 = 0.38). Choice A, 3.8, is incorrect as it is equivalent to 380%. Choice C, 0.038, is incorrect as it represents 3.8%. Choice D, 38.0, is incorrect as it is still in percentage form.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To find the product of 88 and 7.08, simply multiply the two numbers: 88 x 7.08 = 623.04. Therefore, the correct answer is D. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not result from the correct multiplication of 88 and 7.08.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To convert ounces to milliliters, we know that 1 ounce is approximately 30 mL. Therefore, 0.5 ounces would be half of that, which is 15 mL. So, 0.5 oz of perfume is equal to 15 mL. Choice A (10 mL), Choice C (20 mL), and Choice D (25 mL) are incorrect as they do not reflect the accurate conversion from ounces to milliliters.
