HESI A2 Math Practice Test Questions

Question 1 of 5

How many pints are there in 4 quarts?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To convert quarts to pints, we know that 1 quart is equivalent to 2 pints. Therefore, to find out how many pints are in 4 quarts, we multiply 2 pints by 4, which equals 8 pints. Hence, the correct answer is 8 pints. Choice A (2 pints) is incorrect because it represents the conversion of 1 quart, not 4 quarts. Choice C (16 pints) and Choice D (32 pints) are incorrect as they miscalculate the conversion by not considering the correct conversion factor of 2 pints per quart.

Question 2 of 5

If the outside temperature is 59 degrees on the Fahrenheit scale, what is the approximate temperature on the Celsius scale?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To convert Fahrenheit to Celsius, you can use the formula: �C = (�F - 32) x 5/9. Substituting the Fahrenheit temperature of 59 degrees into the formula: �C = (59 - 32) x 5/9 = 27 x 5/9 = 135/9 = 15. Therefore, the approximate temperature on the Celsius scale is 15�C. Choice A is incorrect as it represents a negative temperature which is not the case here. Choice C and D are also incorrect as they do not match the calculated conversion from Fahrenheit to Celsius.

Question 3 of 5

What is the volume of water needed to fill a rectangular swimming pool with dimensions 10 meters by 5 meters and a depth of 2 meters?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To find the volume of the rectangular swimming pool, you need to multiply the length by the width by the depth. Volume = Length x Width x Depth. Therefore, Volume = 10m x 5m x 2m = 100 cubic meters. This means it takes 100 cubic meters of water to fill the pool. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not correctly calculate the volume based on the provided dimensions.

Question 4 of 5

How many liters are in 120 milliliters?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To convert milliliters to liters, divide the milliliters by 1000 since there are 1000 milliliters in a liter. In this case, 120 milliliters divided by 1000 equals 0.12 liters. Therefore, the correct answer is 0.12 liters. Choice A (1.2 liters) is incorrect as it incorrectly moved the decimal point. Choice B (12 liters) is incorrect as it incorrectly multiplied by 10 instead of dividing by 1000. Choice C (1,200 liters) is incorrect as it added an extra zero, resulting in a much larger value.

Question 5 of 5

What is the result of dividing 3 by 4?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To divide 3 by 4, we perform the division operation: 3 � 4 = 0.75. The correct answer is 0.75 (D). Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not result from dividing 3 by 4. Choice A (5.75) is the result of dividing 23 by 4, choice B (5.875) is the result of dividing 7 by 1.2, and choice C (6.25) is the result of multiplying 5 by 1.25.
