HESI A2 Math 2024 Questions
Question 1 of 5
Convert this military time to regular time: 0705 hours.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: In military time, 0705 hours translates to 7:05 A.M. Military time follows a 24-hour clock format, so there is no change from A.M. to P.M. like in regular time. Choice B (7:05 P.M.) is incorrect as 0705 hours is in the morning. Choices C (5:07 A.M.) and D (5:07 P.M.) are incorrect due to the incorrect order of hours and minutes.
Question 2 of 5
Multiply and express as a decimal: 6 55 =
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: To find the result of multiplying 6 by 55, you perform the operation 6 55, which equals 330. To express this product in decimal form, you place the decimal point one place from the right, resulting in 3.3. Therefore, the correct answer is D (3.3). Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not represent the correct decimal equivalent of the multiplication of 6 and 55.
Question 3 of 5
Divide: 727 � 6 =
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: When dividing 727 by 6, the quotient is 121 with a remainder of 1. The correct answer is, therefore, 121 r1. Choice A (120 r1) is incorrect as the quotient is 121, not 120. Choice B (120 r3) is also incorrect as the remainder should be 1, not 3. Choice D (127 r3) is incorrect as both the quotient and remainder are different from the correct values obtained by dividing 727 by 6.
Question 4 of 5
Temperature Conversion & Interpretation: A patient's body temperature is 102�F. Convert this to �C and assess if it indicates a fever.
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Rationale: 1. To convert Fahrenheit to Celsius, you can use the formula: �C = (�F - 32) x 5/9. 2. Given that the patient's body temperature is 102�F, we can calculate the equivalent temperature in Celsius: �C = (102 - 32) x 5/9 �C = 70 x 5/9 �C = 350/9 �C ≈ 38.9�C, which can be rounded to 39�C. 3. A body temperature of 39�C is considered to indicate a fever. Normal body temperature typically ranges from 36.1�C to 37.2�C, so a temperature of 39�C is higher than the normal range and suggests a fever. 4. Options A and B are incorrect as they do not reflect the conversion of 102�F to �C
Question 5 of 5
A plan for a house is drawn on a 1:40 scale. If the length of the living room on the plan measures 5 inches, what is the actual length of the built living room?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Since the scale of the plan is 1:40, this means that 1 inch on the plan represents 40 inches in reality. Therefore, the actual length of the living room can be calculated as 5 inches on the plan multiplied by the scale factor of 40, which equals 200 inches. Converting 200 inches to feet gives us 15 feet as the actual length of the built living room. Choice A (45 feet) is incorrect because it miscalculates the conversion from inches to feet. Choice B (25 feet) is incorrect as it does not consider the scale factor provided. Choice D (12 feet) is incorrect as it does not apply the correct scale factor to convert the plan's measurements to reality.
