The Mathematics section tests the arithmetic a nursing program expects you to do quickly and without a calculator: whole numbers, fractions, decimals, percentages, ratios and proportions, basic algebra, measurement and unit conversions, Roman numerals, and the kind of proportion work that underlies medication-dosage calculations. Speed and accuracy both count, so practising the steps until they are automatic matters as much as knowing the method.

A. 40B. 28C. 30D. 58Answer: B. Following the order of operations, 9 − 4 = 5, then 6 × 5 ÷ 3 = 10, and 18 + 10 = 28.
2. What is the sum of 2 3/4 and 1 5/6, expressed as a mixed number in lowest terms?
A. 3 8/10B. 4 1/3C. 4 7/12D. 4 5/6Answer: C. Using a common denominator of 12, 33/12 + 22/12 = 55/12, which equals 4 7/12.
