A dog sees a cat 80 m away. The cat runs at a speed of 5 m/s while the dog chases it at a speed 2 m/s more than that of the cat. Before the dog is able to catch the cat, how much distance has it already run?
  1. ক) 50 m
  2. খ) 100 m
  3. গ) 130 m
  4. ঘ) 200 m
ব্যাখ্যা

Let distance travelled by cat before dog catches it be D
We know, time for which Dog and Cat ran is same
∴ T = T
∴ D/5 = (D + 80)/7 [D = S x T]
∴ D = 200 m

A man reaches his office 20 min late, if he walks from his home at 3 km per hour and reaches 30 min early if he walks 4 km per hour. How far is his office from his house?
  1. ক) 8 km
  2. খ) 12 km
  3. গ) 10 km
  4. ঘ) 16 km
ব্যাখ্যা

Let, distance = x km.
Time taken at 3 kmph : dist/speed = x/3 = 20 min late.
Time taken at 4 kmph : x/4 = 30 min earlier
Difference between time taken : 30 - (-20) = 50 mins = 50/60 hours.
x/3 - x/4 = 50/60
x/12 = 5/6
x = 10 km.

Rahim and Shafiq are standing at two ends of a room with a width of 30 m. They start walking towards each other along the width of the room with a speed of 2 m/s and 1 m/s respectively. Find the total distance travelled by Rahim when he meets Shafiq for the third time.
  1. ক) 110 m
  2. খ) 112 m
  3. গ) 120 m
  4. ঘ) 100 m
ব্যাখ্যা

When Rahim meets Shafiq for the third time,
they together would have covered a Distance of 5d, i.e 5 × 30m = 150 m.

The ratio of Speed of Rahim and Shafiq = 2 : 1,
so the total distance traveled by them will also be in the ratio 2 : 1
as the Time is taken is constant.

So the Distance traveled by Rahim will be (2/3) × 150= 100 m.

.
A man decided to cover a distance of 6 km in 84 minutes. He decided to cover two-thirds of the distance at 4 km/hr and the remaining at some different speed. Find the speed after the two-third distance has been covered:
  1. ক) 5 kmph
  2. খ) 7 kmph
  3. গ) 9 kmph
  4. ঘ) 3 kmph
ব্যাখ্যা

We are given that two-thirds of the 6 km was covered at 4 km/hr i.e. 4 km distance was covered at 4 km/hr.
Time taken to cover 4 km = 4 km/4 km/hr = 1 hr = 60 minutes.
Time left = 84 – 60 = 24 minutes

Now, the man has to cover the remaining 2 km in 24 minutes or 24/60 = 0.4 hours
Speed required for remaining 2 km = 2 km/0.4 hr = 5 km/hr

.
Joy travelled from his town to city. He went to the city by bicycle at the speed of 25 km/h and came back at the speed of 4 km/h. If he took 5 hours and 48 min to complete his journey, what is the distance between town and city?
  1. ক) 15 km
  2. খ) 22 km
  3. গ) 20 km
  4. ঘ) 25 km
ব্যাখ্যা

Average speed of Joy = 2xy/(x + y)
= (2 × 25 × 4)/(25 + 4)
= 200/29 km/h

Distance traveled = Speed × Time
= 200/29 × 29/5
= 40 Km

Distance between city and town = 40/2 = 20 km.

.
Rashed walks at a speed of 12 km/h. Today the day was very hot so walked at ⅚ of his average speed. He arrived at his school 10 minutes late. Find the usual time he takes to cover the distance between his school and home?
  1. ক) 40 min
  2. খ) 45 min
  3. গ) 50 min
  4. ঘ) 60 min
ব্যাখ্যা

If Rashed is walking 5/6 of his usual speed that means he is taking 6/5 of using time.

According to the question,
6/5 of usual time - usual time = 10 mins
1/5 of usual time = 10 mins
Usual time = 50 mins.

.
In a kilometer race, A beats B by 100 meters. B beats C by 100 meters. By how much meters does A beat C in the same race ?
  1. ক) 200 meters
  2. খ) 180 meters
  3. গ) 190 meters
  4. ঘ) 210 meters
ব্যাখ্যা

While A covers 1000 meters, B can cover 900 meters

While B covers 1000 meters, C can cover 900 meters

Let's assume that all three of them are running the same race.
So when B runs 900 meters,
C can run 900 × (9/10)
= 810

So A can beat C by = 1000 - 810 = 190 meters.

.
In a 100 m race A runs at a speed of 1.66 m/s. If A gives a start of 4m to B and still beats him by 12 seconds. What is the speed of B?
  1. ক) 1.33 m/s
  2. খ) 2.66 m/s
  3. গ) 3 m/s
  4. ঘ) 4.25 m/s
ব্যাখ্যা

Time is taken by A to cover 100 meters = 60 seconds
A gives a start of 4 seconds then time takes by B = 72 seconds
B takes 72 seconds to cover 96 meters
Speed of B = 96/72 = 1.33 m/s

.
A man takes 6 hours 15 minutes walking a distance and riding back to starting place. He could walk both ways in 7 hours 45 minutes. The time taken by him to ride back both ways is -
  1. ক) 4 hours
  2. খ) 4 hours 30 minutes
  3. গ) 4 hours 45 minutes
  4. ঘ) 5 hours
ব্যাখ্যা

Time is taken in walking both the ways = 7 hours 45 minutes -------- (i)

Time is taken in walking one way and riding back = 6 hours 15 minutes ----------- (ii)
By the equation (ii) × 2 - (i), we have,

Time is taken by the man in riding both ways,
= 12 hours 30 minutes - 7 hours 45 minutes
= 4 hours 45 minutes.

১০.
A man reduces his speed from 20 kmph to 18 kmph. So, he takes 10 minutes more than the normal time. What is the distance traveled by him?
  1. ক) 30 km
  2. খ) 25 km
  3. গ) 50 km
  4. ঘ) 36 km
ব্যাখ্যা

As the speed decreases from 20 kmph to 18 kmph i.e. 10 % increment in usual time.
10% = 10 min
100% = 100 min.

Now,
Distance traveled by him,
= (100/60) × 18
= 30 km.

১১.
Two buses start from a bus terminal with a speed of 20 km/h at an interval of 10 minutes. What is the speed of a man coming from the opposite direction towards the bus terminal if he meets the buses at an interval of 8 minutes?
  1. ক) 3 kmph
  2. খ) 4 kmph
  3. গ) 5 kmph
  4. ঘ) 7 kmph
ব্যাখ্যা

Let, Speed of the man is x Kmph.
Distance covered in 10 minutes at 20 kmph = distance covered in 8 minutes at (20 + x) kmph.
⇒ 20 × (10/60) = 8/60 × (20 + x)
⇒ 200 = 160 + 8x
⇒ 8x = 40
Hence, x = 5 kmph.

১২.
From two places, 60 km apart, A and B start towards each other at the same time and meet each other after 6 hour. If A traveled with 2/3 of his speed and B traveled with double of his speed, they would have met after 5 hours. The speed of A is -
  1. ক) 4 km/hr
  2. খ) 6 km/hr
  3. গ) 10 km/hr
  4. ঘ) 12 km/hr
ব্যাখ্যা

Let the speed of A = x kmph and that of B = y kmph

According to the question,
(x × 6) + (y × 6) = 60
⇒ x + y = 10 --------- (i)
And,
(2x/3) × 5 + (2y × 5) = 60
⇒ 10x + 30y = 180
⇒ x + 3y = 18 ---------- (ii)
From equation (i) × 3 - (ii)
3x + 3y - x - 3y = 30 - 18
⇒ 2x = 12
Hence, x = 6 kmph.

১৩.
Rizvi and Amin start simultaneously from a place A towards B 60 km apart. Rizvi's speed is 4km/h less than that of Amin. Amin, after reaching B, turns back and meets Rizvi at a place 12 km away from B. Rizvi's speed is -
  1. ক) 12 km/hr
  2. খ) 10 km/hr
  3. গ) 8 km/hr
  4. ঘ) 6 km/hr
ব্যাখ্যা

Let the speed of Rizvi be x kmph;
Hence, Amin's speed = (x + 4) kmph;
Distance covered by Amin = 60 + 12 = 72 km;
Distance covered by Rizvi = 60 - 12 = 48 km.

According to question,
⇒ 72/(x + 4) = 48/x
⇒ 3/(x + 4) = 2/x
⇒ 3x = 2x + 8
⇒ x = 8 kmph.

১৪.
A tiger is 50 of its own leaps behind a deer. The tiger takes 5 leaps and per minute to the deer's 4. If the tiger and the deer cover 8 m and 5 m per leap respectively, what distance will the tiger have to run before it caches the deer?
  1. ক) 600 m
  2. খ) 700 m
  3. গ) 800 m
  4. ঘ) 1000 m
ব্যাখ্যা

Speed of tiger = 40 m/min
Speed of deer = 20 m/min.
Relative speed = 40 - 20 = 20 m/min.
Initial difference in distance = 50 × 8 = 400 m

Time taken to catch = 400/20 = 20 min.
Distance traveled in 20 min,
= 20 × 40
= 800 m.

১৫.
I have two inlet pipes in my tank. Pipe P is diametrically bigger than Q and can fill a tank alone in 22 hours while Pipe Q takes 11 hours longer than Pipe P to fill the tank. If I open both the inlet pipes together, how long will they take to fill the tank?
  1. ক) 19/22 hours
  2. খ) 1(1/11) hours
  3. গ) 13(1/5) hours
  4. ঘ) 18 hours
ব্যাখ্যা

Tank filled or work done by P in 1 hour = 1/22
Tank filled or work done by Q in 1 hour (Q takes 11 hrs more than P) = 1/33

Tank filled or work done by both pipes in 1 hour = 1/22 + 1/33 = 5/66
So the entire tank is full in = 66/5 = 13(1/5) hours.

১৬.
Tap B is 5 times slower than Tap A in filling the same tank. Also tap B takes 32 minutes more than Tap A to fill the same tank completely. How long will the tank take to get full, if both the taps are opened simultaneously?
  1. ক) 5/32 hours
  2. খ) 32/5 hours
  3. গ) 20/3 hours
  4. ঘ) 32/3 hours
ব্যাখ্যা

Let Tap A take T minutes to fill the tank alone.
Since Tap A is 5 times faster than Tap B, Tap B takes 5 times more time.
So time taken by Tap B = 5T minutes
Also, 5T-T = 32 ----------- Given
∴ T = 8 minutes = Time taken by A
Time taken by B = 5 x 8 = 40 minutes.

In 1 min, A + B fills = 1/8 + 1/40 = 3/20 parts
So entire tank is filled in = 20/3 hours.

১৭.
There are two inlets and one outlet to a tank. Inlet A and B take 1.5 hours and 2 hours respectively to fill the tank. While outlet C can empty the entire tank in 30 minutes. The gardener decides to open Inlet A at 8 am when he arrives on duty and Inlet B one hour later. Outlet C is opened at 10 am. What will be the time by his watch when the tank will be entirely empty again?
  1. ক) 1.25 pm
  2. খ) 12 pm
  3. গ) 12.12 pm
  4. ঘ) 12.18 pm
ব্যাখ্যা

Let the tank get empty in T hours counting from 8 am.
A is on for T hours and work is done by A = Work in 1-hour × T hours = T/1.5 = 2T/3

Similarly, B starts at 9 am i.e. it's on for (T-1) hours & work done is = (T - 1)/2

Similarly, C starts at 10 am i.e. it's on for (T-2) hours & work done is = (T - 2)/(1/2) = 2(T - 2)

Initially, the tank is empty and after T hours too, it is empty. So, the total work done is 0.

According to the question,
2T/3 + (T - 1)/2 - 2(T - 2) = 0
⇒ (4T + 3T - 3 - 12 T + 24)/6 = 0
⇒ -5T + 21 = 0
⇒ 5T = 21
⇒ T = 21/5
= 4.2 hours = 4 hours 12 minutes5
This time is needed for the tank to get empty.
The exact time will be 4 hours 12 min from 8 am = 12.12 pm

১৮.
Tap A and B can fill a cistern together in 2.4 hours. The water from Tap A flows at the rate of 100 litre per hour to fill the cistern while Tap B has the capacity to fill the entire cistern in just 4 hours. Find how much water can the cistern hold?
  1. ক) 500 litres
  2. খ) 600 litres
  3. গ) 1000 litres
  4. ঘ) 1200 litres
ব্যাখ্যা

Let Tap A fill the cistern completely in A hours.
So in 1 hour, it fills 1/A amount of the cistern

Also in 1 hour in Tap B fills in 1/4 amount of the cistern
Together they fill the cistern in 2.4 hours
So, Also in 1-hour together they fill in (1/2.4)amount of the cistern
So, Also in 1-hour cistern filled by both is given by 1/A + 1/4 = 1/2.4
∴ 1/A = 1/2.4 - 1/4 = 1/6

∴ Pipe A can fill 1/6th tank in 1 hour
∴ Pipe a fills the tank completely in 6 hours.
It has a rate of 100-litre water per hour,
So, in 6 hours it gives out 6 x 100 = 600 litres
In 6 hours cistern is full, so capacity = 600 litres.

১৯.
One pipe can fill a tank four times as fast as another pipe. If together the two pipes can fill the tank in 36 minutes, then the slower pipe alone will be able to fill the tank in -
  1. ক) 144 min
  2. খ) 126 min
  3. গ) 114 min
  4. ঘ) 180 min
ব্যাখ্যা

Suppose the slower pipe alone can fill the tank in x minutes.
Then the faster pipe can fill the tank in x/4 minutes.

Part filled by the slower pipe in 1 minute = 1/x
Part filled by the faster pipe in 1 minute = 4/x
Part filled by both the pipes in 1 minute = 1/x + 4/x

Given that both the pipes together can fill the tank in 36 minutes.
Part filled by both the pipes in 1 minute = 1/36

According to the question,
1/x + 4/x = 1/36
5/x = 1/36
x = 180

২০.
A tap can fill a tank in 4 hours. After half the tank is filled, three more similar taps are opened. What is the total time taken to fill the tank completely?
  1. ক) 1 hr 30
  2. খ) 2 hr 30 min
  3. গ) 2 hr
  4. ঘ) 3 hr
ব্যাখ্যা

A tap can fill a tank in 4 hours.
Therefore the tap can fill half the tank in 2 hours.

Remaining = 1/2

After half the tank is filled, three more similar taps are opened.
Hence, the total number of taps becomes 4.

Part filled by one tap in 1 hour = 1/4
Part filled by four taps in 1 hour = 4 × (1/4) = 1
i.e., 4 taps can fill the remaining half in 30 minutes.

Total time taken
= 2 hour + 30 minute = 2 hour 30 minutes.

২১.
A Pipe P can fill a tank in 16 minutes and the other pipe Q can empty the whole tank in 32 minutes. If both P and Q are opened simultaneously then the time taken to fill the tank is -
  1. ক) 16 minutes
  2. খ) 32 minutes
  3. গ) 48 minutes
  4. ঘ) 40 minutes
ব্যাখ্যা

Let X hours be the time taken to fill a tank by P.
Let Y hours be the time taken to empty the tank by Q.
Then the time taken to fill the tank when P and Q are switched together : XY/(Y - X) hours.
Here, X = 16 minutes And Y = 32 minutes
Therefore,
Required time = (16 × 32)/(32 - 16)
= (32 × 16)/16
= 32 minutes.

২২.
Three pipes A, B and C can fill a tank in 10 hours. After working at it together for 3 hours, C is closed and A and B can fill the remaining part in 14 hours. How much time taken by C to fill the tank alone?
  1. ক) 18 hours
  2. খ) 20 hours
  3. গ) 22 hours
  4. ঘ) 24 hours
ব্যাখ্যা

Three pipes A, B, and C can fill a tank in 8 hours. A, B, and C’s 1 hour work=1/10
A, B and C's 3 hour work= 3/10 Remaining work= 1 – (3/10) = 7/10

The remaining part will be filled by A and B in 14 hours. Then,
⇒ (7/10) × (A + B) = 14
⇒ (A + B)'s whole work= 14 × (10/7)
= 20 hr (A + B)'s 1-hour work
= 1/20

A, B, and C's 1-hour work = 1/10
C's 1 hour work= (A + B + C) – (A + B)
⇒ (1/10) – (1/20)
⇒ 1/20
∴ C can fill the tank in 20 hours.

২৩.
Pipe B is two times efficient as pipe C. Pipe A and B together can fill an empty tank in 8 4/7 hours. Pipe A and C together can fill the same tank in 12 hours. In how many hours required filling by pipe B alone?
  1. ক) 15 hours
  2. খ) 12 hours
  3. গ) 20 hours
  4. ঘ) 30 hours
ব্যাখ্যা

Let, B alone filled the pipe by x hours.

Efficiency ratio of B and C =2 : 1
Time ratio of B and C = 1 : 2

Given,
(1/A + 1/B)- (1/A + 1/C) =7/60 - 1/12
⇒ 1/B - 1/C = 2/60 = 1/30
⇒ 1/x - 1/2x=1/30
⇒ 1/2x=1/30
⇒ 1/x=1/15
⇒ x = 15

B alone filled the pipe by 15 hours.

২৪.
A cistern can be filled by three pipes A, B and C alone 12 hrs, 24hrs and 48 hrs respectively. There is an opening D in the cistern that empties the cistern at the rate of 6m/hr. If the cistern is 96m deep then, in how much time will it be filled upto 72hrs of its depth if all the pipes are opened together at the start but B is closed after an hour?
  1. ক) 17 hours
  2. খ) 20 hours
  3. গ) 12 hours
  4. ঘ) 20 hours
ব্যাখ্যা

Tank filled by A alone in 1 hr = 1/12
Tank filled by B alone in 1 hr = 1/24
Tank filled by C alone in 1 hr = 1/48
D empty the tank at the rate of 6m/hr

So,
Tank empty by D in 1hr = 6/96 = 1/16
Now, tan is to be filled up to 72m i.e., 72/96 =3/4 of tank
So,
Let the 3/4th of the tank to be filled in 't' hours time

For 1 hr all are opened then B closed

So, for (t - 1) hr A, C and D opened
(1/12 + 1/24+ 1/48 -  1/16) + (t - 1) (1/12 + 1/48 - 1/16) = 3/4
⇒ (1/12) + (t - 1) (1/24) = 3/4
⇒ (t - 1)/24 = (3/4) - (1/12)
⇒ (t - 1)/24 = 2/3
⇒ 3t - 3 = 48
⇒ 3t = 51
⇒ t = 17 hours.

২৫.
Half of the water tank is filled manually. Tap A can fill the tank in 20 minutes and B can empty the tank in 12 minutes. If A and B are opened together, then the time taken to empty or fill the tank is -
  1. ক) 30 minutes
  2. খ) 15/2 minutes
  3. গ) 60 minutes
  4. ঘ) 45/2 minutes
ব্যাখ্যা

Given that,
A takes 20 minutes to fill and B takes 12 minutes to empty
Clearly,
tap B is faster than tap A.
And so, the tank will be emptied.
Half of the tank or 1/2 part of the tank is already filled.
Therefore,
we have to find the time taken to empty that 1/2 part.
Part filled by A in 1 minute = 1/20
Part emptied by B in 1 minute = 1/12.
Part emptied by (A + B) in 1 minute
= (1/12) – (1/20)
= (5 - 3)/60
= 2/30.
Therefore,
The time taken by (A + B) to empty the full tank is 15 minutes.
Time taken to empty 1/2 part of the tank is 30/2
= (30/2) × (1/2) minutes.
= 15/2 minutes.

২৬.
3/4 part of the tank is full of water. When 30 litres of water is taken out, the tank becomes empty. The capacity of the tank is -
  1. ক) 36 litres
  2. খ) 42 litres
  3. গ) 40 litres
  4. ঘ) 32 litres
ব্যাখ্যা

If the tank has 4x liters of total capacity and holds 3x liters of water and if 30 liters of water is taken out, then the tank becomes empty.
It means 3x liters of water is taken out
3x = 30 liters
x = 10 liters
Capacity of tank
= 4x
= 4 × 10
= 40 liters.

২৭.
A tank is 7 metre long and 4 meter wide wide. At what speed should water run through a pipe 5 cm broad and 4 cm deep so that in 6 hours and 18 minutes water level in the tank rises by 4.5 meter?
  1. ক) 10 km/hr
  2. খ) 12 km/hr
  3. গ) 9 km/hr
  4. ঘ) 8 km/hr
ব্যাখ্যা

Rate of flow of water = x cm/minute
∴ The volume of water that flowed in the in 1 minute
= (5 × 4 × x) = 20x cu.cm.

∴ The volume of water that flowed in the tank in 6 hours 18 minutes.
i.e. (6 × 60) + 18 = 378 minutes
= 2x × 378 cu. cm.

According to question,
20x × 378 = 700 × 400 × 450
⇒ x = (700 × 400 × 450)/(20 × 378) cm/minutes
⇒ x = (700 × 400 × 450 × 60)/(20 × 378 × 100000) km/hours
⇒ x = 10 km/hrs.

২৮.
Three pipes A, B, and C can fill the tank in 10 hours, 20 hours and 40 hours respectively. In the beginning all of them are opened simultaneously. After 2 hours, tap C is closed and A and B are kept running. After the 4th hour, tap B is also closed. The remaining work is done by tap A alone. What is the percentage of the work done by tap A alone?
  1. ক) 30%
  2. খ) 35%
  3. গ) 40%
  4. ঘ) 55%
ব্যাখ্যা

Pipe A's work in % = 100/10 = 10%
Pipe B's work in % = 100/20 = 5%
Pipe C's work in % = 100/40 = 2.5%
All of them are opened for 2 hours + after 2 hours,
tap C is closed + After the 4th hour, tap B is also closed = 100

According to the question,
(10 + 5 + 2.5) × 2 + (10 + 5) × 2 + work by tap A alone = 100
⇒ 17.5 × 2 + 15 × 2 + work by tap A alone = 100
⇒ 35 + 30 + work by tap A alone = 100
⇒ work by tap A alone = 100 - 65 = 35%.
