HESI A2 Math Practice Test 2023

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To convert milliliters to liters, you need to divide by 1,000 since there are 1,000 milliliters in 1 liter. So, 2,000 milliliters divided by 1,000 equals 2 liters. Therefore, the correct answer is C: 2 liters. Choice A is incorrect as it incorrectly doubles the conversion factor. Choice B is incorrect as it doesn't account for the conversion from milliliters to liters. Choice D is incorrect as it duplicates choice A.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To find the total number of pages the man reads per day, we multiply 2 chapters/day by 6 pages/chapter, which equals 12 pages/day. To determine how many days it will take to finish a 798-page book at 12 pages/day, we divide 798 by 12, resulting in approximately 66.5 days. This is why choice D is correct. Choice A (133 days) is incorrect because it overestimates the time needed, while choice B (399 days) and choice C (75 days) underestimate the time required to finish the book.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To convert yards to inches, we know that 1 yard is equal to 36 inches. Therefore, 1.5 yards would be 1.5 x 36 = 54 inches. The correct answer is A (54 inches). Option B, 60 inches, is incorrect because it does not accurately convert 1.5 yards to inches. Option C, 72 inches, and option D, 84 inches, are also incorrect as they do not correctly represent the conversion from yards to inches in this scenario.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To convert from kilograms to grams, you multiply by 1000 since 1 kilogram is equal to 1000 grams. So, 6 kilograms x 1000 = 6000 grams. Therefore, the correct answer is B: 6000 grams. Choice A (600 grams) is incorrect because it doesn't account for the conversion factor of 1000 between kilograms and grams. Choice C (600 grams) is also incorrect as it doesn't reflect the correct conversion. Choice D (60,000 grams) is incorrect as it misinterprets the conversion factor and multiplies incorrectly.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To convert 3/8 to a decimal, divide the numerator (3) by the denominator (8): 3 ÷ 8 = 0.375. The correct answer is D. Choice A (0.25) is the decimal equivalent of 1/4, not 3/8. Choice B is a duplicate of A. Choice C (0.3) is the decimal equivalent of 3/10, not 3/8.
