Math HESI A2 Practice Test Questions
Question 1 of 5
If a person consumes 500 calories per meal, how many calories will they consume in 3 meals?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To find total calories consumed in 3 meals, multiply 500 calories/meal by 3 meals: 500 x 3 = 1500 calories. This is why choice B is correct. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately calculate the total calories consumed in 3 meals. Choice A is half the correct answer, choice C is double, and choice D is the amount of calories in one meal, not for 3 meals.
Question 2 of 5
A pizza has a diameter of 40cm. What is its perimeter (circumference)?
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.
Question 3 of 5
A marathon runner is training for her next race. On her weekly weekend run she completes 21.4 miles and burns 2276 calories. What is her rate of calories burned per mile?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To find the rate of calories burned per mile, divide the total calories burned (2276) by the total miles ran (21.4). So, 2276 / 21.4 = 106.4. This means the runner burns approximately 106.4 calories per mile. Choice A (106.4) is correct as it represents the correct calculation result. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not match the calculated value based on the given information.
Question 4 of 5
How many ounces are in 3 quarts?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: To convert quarts to ounces, we know that 1 quart equals 32 ounces. Therefore, 3 quarts would equal 3 x 32 = 96 ounces. This makes answer choice D (96 ounces) the correct option. Choice A (64 ounces) is incorrect because it miscalculates the conversion. Choice B (32 ounces) is incorrect as it represents 1 quart, not 3 quarts. Choice C (48 ounces) is also incorrect as it is an intermediate value between the correct answer and the incorrect answer A.
Question 5 of 5
What is 50% of 120?
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.
