Math HESI A2 Practice Test

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: D

Rationale: To find 50% of 120, you multiply 120 by 0.50 (which represents 50%). So, 120 x 0.50 = 60. Therefore, the correct answer is D. Choice A (50) is incorrect because it represents the percentage value, not the result of the calculation. Choice B (50) is a duplicate of Choice A. Choice C (70) is incorrect as it is not the result of finding 50% of 120.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To find 75% of 80, you multiply 80 by 0.75 (which represents 75%). 80 * 0.75 = 60. Therefore, the correct answer is D: 60. Choice A (35) is incorrect because it is not 75% of 80. Choice B (45) is also incorrect as it is not the correct calculation for 75% of 80. Choice C (70) is incorrect as well since it does not represent 75% of 80.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To add 1/4 and 3/8, we need a common denominator, which is 8. So, 1/4 becomes 2/8. Adding 2/8 + 3/8 gives us 5/8. Therefore, the correct answer is A: 5/8. Choice B, 7/12, is incorrect as it is the result of adding 1/4 and 1/3. Choice C, 2/3, is incorrect as it is the result of adding 1/4 and 1/2. Choice D, 1/2, is incorrect as it is the result of adding 1/4 and 1/4.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To find the perimeter (circumference) of a circle, we use the formula C = πd, where d is the diameter. Given the diameter of the pizza is 40cm, we substitute this into the formula: C = π * 40 = 125.6cm (Choice C). This is the correct answer as it accurately calculates the circumference. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not provide the correct calculation based on the given diameter. Choice A (62.8cm) seems to be using the formula for the circumference of a circle with radius, not diameter. Choices B and D are simply incorrect calculations.
