HESI A2 Math Practice Test 2022

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To find the result of dividing 3.44 by 0.6, you perform the division operation: 3.44 � 0.6 = 5.73. When rounded off to the nearest whole number, 5.73 becomes 6. Therefore, the correct answer is 6. Choice A is incorrect as the result is not 0. Choice C is incorrect as it is not the closest whole number to 5.73. Choice D is incorrect as it does not reflect the accurate division result.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To convert grams to milligrams, you need to multiply by 1,000 since there are 1,000 milligrams in a gram. Therefore, 7 grams is equal to 7,000 milligrams. Choice A (700 mg) is incorrect because it represents grams to milligrams incorrectly. Choice B (0.7 mg) is incorrect as it converts grams to milligrams erroneously by decimal placement. Choice D (0.07) is incorrect as it converts grams to milligrams inaccurately by misplacing the decimal point.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: 1/4 gram is equivalent to 1/4 * 1000 milligrams (since 1 gram = 1000 milligrams). 1/4 * 1000 = 250 milligrams. Therefore, the equivalent dosage in milligrams is 250mg, which corresponds to option B. The other choices are incorrect because they do not correctly convert 1/4 gram to milligrams using the conversion factor of 1 gram = 1000 milligrams.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The opposite of a number is the number that, when added to it, results in zero. In this case, the opposite of -3 is a number that, when added to -3, gives 0. Therefore, the opposite of -3 is 3, as -3 + 3 = 0. Choice A, -6, is incorrect because -3 + (-6) = -9, not zero. Choice C, 0, is the additive inverse of 0, not -3. Choice D, 6, is also incorrect as -3 + 6 = 3, not zero.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To determine the largest number among the given decimals, compare them. 0.68 is the largest number as it is greater than 0.667, 0.6, and 0.0688. The correct answer is 0.68 because it has the highest value. The other options are smaller: 0.667 is less than 0.68, 0.6 is less than 0.68, and 0.0688 is significantly smaller than 0.68.
