Math HESI A2 Practice Test
1. What is 50% of 120?
- A. 50
- B. 50
- C. 70
- D. 60
Correct answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D, 60. To find 50% of 120, you multiply 0.5 by 120: 0.5 x 120 = 60. Choice A and B are incorrect as they are duplicates. Choice C, 70, is incorrect because it is not the result of calculating 50% of 120.
2. Change the following percentage to a decimal: 0.03%
- A. 0.03
- B. 0.0003
- C. 0.3
- D. 0.003
Correct answer: B
Rationale: To convert a percentage to a decimal, divide by 100. Therefore, 0.03% รท 100 = 0.0003. The correct answer is B. Choice A (0.03) is incorrect because it does not account for the conversion of percentage to decimal. Choice C (0.3) is incorrect as it represents 0.03 as 30% rather than 0.03%. Choice D (0.003) is also incorrect as it does not accurately convert 0.03% to a decimal.
3. Sarah had 1 quart of milk. How many ounces of milk is that?
- A. 16 ounces
- B. 24 ounces
- C. 32 ounces
- D. 48 ounces
Correct answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is 32 ounces. One quart is equivalent to 32 ounces. To convert quarts to ounces, you need to know that 1 quart equals 32 ounces. Therefore, 1 quart of milk is equal to 32 ounces. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not accurately convert 1 quart to ounces.
4. When a die is rolled, what is the probability of rolling an odd number?
- A. 16.67%
- B. 33.33%
- C. 75%
- D. 50%
Correct answer: D
Rationale: When a die is rolled, there are 3 odd numbers (1, 3, 5) out of a total of 6 possible outcomes. The probability of rolling an odd number is calculated by dividing the number of favorable outcomes (3) by the total number of outcomes (6), resulting in a probability of 3/6 or 50%. Therefore, the correct answer is D. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not reflect the correct probability calculation for rolling an odd number on a standard six-sided die.
5. How many feet are in 2 miles?
- A. 5280 feet
- B. 15840 feet
- C. 10560 feet
- D. 10200 feet
Correct answer: C
Rationale: To convert miles to feet, multiply the number of miles by the conversion factor of feet per mile. Since there are 5280 feet in 1 mile, to find the number of feet in 2 miles, you multiply 2 by 5280, resulting in 10560 feet. Choice A, 5280 feet, is the conversion factor for 1 mile, not for 2 miles. Choices B and D are incorrect calculations that do not follow the conversion factor correctly.
