A clock is set at 4 am. It loses 16 minutes in 24 hours. What will be the correct time when the clock indicates 9 pm on the 4th day?
  1. 8 pm
  2. 7 pm
  3. 10 pm
  4. 11 pm
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: A clock is set at 4 am. It loses 16 minutes in 24 hours. What will be the correct time when the clock indicates 9 pm on the 4th day?

Solution:
Time from 4 am on a day to 9pm on the 4 th day = 89 hours

As per the question, 23 hrs 44 minutes of this clock = 24 hours of the correct clock as this clock loses 16 minutes in 24 hours.

23 hrs 44 minutes = 23 + 44/60 = 23 + 11/15 = (345 + 11)/15 =  (356/15) hours 

Now,
 (356/15) Hours of this clock = 24 hours of correct clock
∴ 89 hours of this clock = (24 × 15 × 89)/356 = 90 hours of the correct clock, i.e. the correct clock gains one hour over the incorrect clock.

∴ The correct time on the fourth day would be 10 pm.

Question: A student responded to all of the 22 questions on a test and received a score of 63.5. If the scores were derived by adding 3.5 points for each correct answer and deducting 1 point for each incorrect answer, how many questions did the student answer incorrectly?

Solution:
Let the number of correct answers be X
The number of incorrect answers will be 22 - X
For each correct answer the student got 3.5 points for a total of 3.5X
For each incorrect answer one point was taken out which is equivalent to - (22 - X)
The total he got for that was 63.5

So in short you have the following equation and solution.
3.5X - (22 - X) = 63.5
⇒ 3.5X - 22 + X = 63.5
⇒ 4.5X = 63.5 + 22
⇒ 4.5X = 85.5
⇒ 4.5X/4.5 = 85.5/4.5
∴ X = 19

So incorrect answers will be 22 - X = 22 - 19 = 3.

A worker earns Tk. 350 on the first day and spends Tk. 300 on the second day, earns Tk. 350 on the third day and again spends Tk. 300 on the fourth day and so on. On which day would he have had Tk. 1000?
  1. 21th day
  2. 31th day
  3. 27th day
  4. 25th day
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: A worker earns Tk. 350 on the first day and spends Tk. 300 on the second day, earns Tk. 350 on the third day and again spends Tk. 300 on the fourth day and so on. On which day would he have had Tk. 1000?

Solution:
১ম দিনে আয় করে ৩৫০ টাকা।
২য় দিনে ব্যয় করে ৩০০ টাকা।

∴ ২ দিনে তার জমা থাকে (৩৫০ - ৩০০) = ৫০ টাকা।

এখন, (১০০০ - ৩৫০) = ৬৫০ টাকা।

৫০ টাকা জমা থাকে ২ দিনে
১ টাকা জমা থাকে ২/৫০ দিনে
৬৫০  টাকা জমা থাকে (২ × ৬৫০)/৫০ দিনে
= ২৬ দিন।

২৬ দিন পর তার হাতে থাকে ৬৫০ টাকা
এবং ২৭ তম দিনে সে আয় করে ৩৫০ টাকা।
তাহলে মোট টাকা হয় (৬৫০ + ৩৫০) = ১০০০ টাকা,

সুতরাং ২৭ দিনে তার কাছে ১০০০ টাকা ছিল।

Find out the wrong term: 8, 14, 26, 48, 98, 194, 386 
  1. 98
  2. 14
  3. 48
  4. 194
ব্যাখ্যা

Question: Find out the wrong term: 8, 14, 26, 48, 98, 194, 386 

Solution:
Each term = (previous term × 2) - 2
Let’s check term by term.
1st term = 8
2nd = 8 × 2 - 2 = 16 - 2 = 14
3rd = 14 × 2 - 2 = 28 - 2 = 26
4th = 26 × 2 - 2 = 52 - 2 = 50 ; but the given term is 48 (wrong here)
5th = 50 × 2 - 2 = 100 - 2 = 98
6th = 98 × 2 - 2 = 196 - 2 = 194
7th = 194 × 2 - 2 = 388 - 2 = 386

The first mistake occurs at the 4th term. 26 should become 50, but it is written as 48.
So 48 is the wrong term. It should be replaced by 50.
Correct series should be 8, 14, 26, 50, 98, 194, 386

ব্যাখ্যা

Question: A man starts climbing a 15m high wall at 8 am. In each minute, he climbs up 3m but slips down 1m. At what time will he climb the wall?

Solution:
দেওয়া আছে, দেয়ালের মোট উচ্চতা = 15 মিটার।

লোকটি প্রতি মিনিটে উপরে ওঠে = 3 মিটার।
লোকটি প্রতি মিনিটে নিচে নেমে যায় = 1 মিটার।

∴ প্রতি মিনিটে তার নিট বা প্রকৃত আরোহণ = 3 মিটার - 1 মিটার
= 2 মিটার।

এখানে, শেষ মিনিটে লোকটি উপরে উঠে যাবে এবং আর পিছলে নামবে না।
তাই, শেষ 3 মিটার বাদ দিয়ে হিসাব করতে হবে।

যে উচ্চতা পর্যন্ত তাকে পিছলে নামতে হবে = 15 - 3 = 12 মিটার।

2 মিটার উঠতে সময় লাগে = 1 মিনিট।
∴12 মিটার উঠতে সময় লাগে = 12/2 মিনিট
= 6 মিনিট।

সর্বশেষ 3 মিটার সে পরের মিনিটে উঠে যাবে এবং দেয়ালের শীর্ষে পৌঁছাবে।
সুতরাং, মোট সময় লাগবে = 6 মিনিট + 1 মিনিট = 7 মিনিট।

যেহেতু লোকটি সকাল 8টায় আরোহণ শুরু করেছিল, তাই সে সকাল 8টা 7 মিনিটে দেয়ালে পৌঁছাবে।

ব্যাখ্যা
Question: If today is Monday. After 57 days, it would be:

Solution:
57/7 = 8 ( Remainder = 1)

It is well known that each day of the week is repeated after 7 days.
So we can say that after multiples of 7 days, the day will repeat itself as monday.
Hence after 56 days Monday will occur again.

So we calculate after after 57 days = Monday + 1day = Tuesday.

What is the angle between the hour and minute hands of a clock at 14 : 50?
  1. 135°
  2. 140°
  3. 145°
  4. 150°
ব্যাখ্যা

Question: What is the angle between the hour and minute hands of a clock at 14 : 50?

Solution: 
At 14 : 50, the clock is in the second hour of the afternoon. We use the 12-hour format for calculation.
Then we get, 14 : 50 = 2 : 50

We know, 
Angle = |11M - 60H|/2 = |(11 × 50) - (60 × 2)|/2
= |550 - 120|/2
= 430/2
= 215°

∴ The smaller angle between hands = 360° - 215° = 145°

So the angle between the hour and minute hands at 14 : 50 is 145°.

ব্যাখ্যা

Question: Which of the following comes first in dictionary order?

Solution:
প্রদত্ত চারটি শব্দের মধ্যে , Transfix, Transform এবং Transfuse -এর প্রথম ছয়টি অক্ষর "Transf" একই।
অন্যদিকে, Transit শব্দের প্রথম  ছয়টি অক্ষর "Transi"।

ডিকশনারি ক্রম অনুযায়ী, 'f' অক্ষরটি 'i' অক্ষরের আগে আসে। সুতরাং, Transfix, Transform এবং Transfuse এই তিনটি শব্দের মধ্যে প্রথম শব্দটি পাওয়া যাবে। Transit শব্দটি সবার শেষে আসবে।

এখন, Transfix, Transform এবং Transfuse এর মধ্যে তুলনা করি। এই শব্দ তিনটির প্রথম ছয়টি অক্ষর "Transf" একই।
সপ্তম অক্ষরগুলো হলো: 'i' (Transfix), 'o' (Transform), 'u' (Transfuse) ।

ডিকশনারি ক্রম অনুযায়ী, 'i', 'o' এবং 'u' এর মধ্যে 'i' প্রথমে আসে।
সুতরাং, Transfix শব্দটি বাকি সব শব্দের আগে আসবে।

অতএব, প্রদত্ত শব্দগুলোর মধ্যে Transfix প্রথমে আসবে।

ব্যাখ্যা
Question: An observer 1.6 m tall is 20√3 m away from a tower. The angle of elevation from his eye to the top of the tower is 30°. The height of the tower is:

Solution:

Here, 
Height of the observer AB = 1.6 m 
Distance  between observer and tower AC = 20√3 m
∴ CE = AB = 1.6 m 
Height of the tower is CD = CE + DE.

From ΔBDE we get,
BE = AC = 20√3 m

Now,
tan30° = DE/BE 
⇒ 1/√3 = DE/(20√3)
⇒ DE = (20√3)/√3 
∴ DE = 20 

∴ The height of the tower is = CE + DE = 1.6 + 20 m = 21.6 m
