A man's speed with the current is 15 km/hr and the speed of the current is 2.5 km/hr. The man's speed against the current is:
  1. ক) 9 km/hr
  2. খ) 12.5 km/hr
  3. গ) 8.5 km/hr
  4. ঘ) 10 km/hr
ব্যাখ্যা

Man's speed with the current = 15 km/hr
=> speed of the man + speed of the current = 15 km/hr
Speed of the current is 2.5 km/hr
Hence, speed of the man
= 15-2.5
= 12.5 km/hr
Man's speed against the current = speed of the man - speed of the current
= 12.5-2.5
= 10 km/hr

প্রশ্ন: A person multiplied a number by 3/5 instead of 5/3, What is the percentage error in the calculation?

সমাধান: 
ধরি,
সংখ্যাটি = ক

৩/৫ দ্বারা গুণ করলে হবে = ৩ক/৫
৫/৩ দ্বারা গুণ করলে হবে = ৫ক/৩

হিসাবের ভুল = (৫ক/৩ - ৩ক/৫)
= (২৫ক - ৯ক)/১৫ 
= ১৬ক/১৫

৫ক/৩ এ ভুল হয় = ১৬ক/১৫
∴ ১ এ ভুল হয় = (১৬ক/১৫) × (৩/৫ক) = ১৬/২৫
∴ ১০০ এ ভুল হয় = (১৬/২৫) × ১০০
= ৬৪

Question: Bottles A and B contain alcohol-water solutions in ratios of 1:3 and 4:1 respectively. X liters of the solution from bottle A are to be mixed with Y liters of the solution from bottle B. What will be the percentage of alcohol in the resultant solution?

Solution: 
In bottle A,
alcohol = 1/4
so, in X liters of bottle A contains alcohol = X/4

in bottle B,
alcohol = 4/5
so, in Y liters of bottle B contains alcohol = 4Y/5

total alcohol in X + Y liters solution = X/4 + 4Y/5
= (5X + 16Y)/20

∴ percentage = [{(5X + 16Y)/20}/(X + Y)] × 100%
= {(25X + 80Y)/(X + Y)}%

Question: In a class of 98 students, 41 are taking Bengali, 22 are taking English and 9 are taking both courses. How many students are not enrolled in either course?
(Officer Cash 2022 অনুযায়ী)

Solution:
Total students = 98
Students taking Bengali n(B) = 41
Students taking English n(E) = 22
Students taking both Bengali and English = 9

We know,
n(B ∪ E) = n(B) + n(E) - n(B ∩ E)
n(B ∪ E) = 41 + 22 - 9 = 54

∴ Not enrolled = Total students - n(B ∪ E) = 98 - 54 = 44

  4. 150
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: The students in three classes are in the ratio 2 : 3 : 5. If 20 students are increased in each class, the ratio changes to 4 : 5 : 7. Originally the total number of students was-

Solution:
Let the original number of students in three classes be 2x, 3x and 5x respectively.
As given,
(2x + 20)/(3x + 20) = 4/5
⇒ 10x + 100 = 12x + 80
⇒ 12x - 10x = 100 - 80
⇒ 2x = 20
∴ x = 10

Total number of students originally = 2x + 3x + 5x
= 10x
= 10 × 10
= 100

  3. 8
  4. 3
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: What is the minimum value of 4sin2θ + 5cos2θ is-

Solution:
Let,
⇒ x = 4sin2θ + 5cos2θ
⇒ x = 4sin2θ + 4cos2θ + cos2θ
⇒ x = 4(sin2θ + cos2θ) + cos2θ
⇒ x = 4 + cos2θ     [sin2θ + cos2θ = 1]
⇒ x = 4 + 0
∴ x = 4

The minimum value of x depends on the minimum value of cos2θ
Since the minimum value of cos2θ is 0, So the minimum value of x is 4.

Question: 1 year ago the ratio between A's and B' s salary was 3 : 4. Ratios of their individual salaries between last year's and this year's salaries are 4 : 5 & 2 : 3 respectively. At present the total of their salary is TK. 4160. How much is the salary of A now?

Solution:
Let,
the salaries of A and B last year be Tk. 3x and Tk. 4x respectively.
Then,
A's present salary = Tk. (5/4) × 3x
= Tk. 15x/4

B's present salary = Tk.(3/2) × 4x
= Tk. 6x.

According to the question,
(15x/4) + 6x = 4160
⇒ 15x + 24x = 4160 × 4
⇒ 39x = 4160 × 4
⇒ x = (4160 × 4)/39

So, A's present salary = Tk. (15/4) × {(4160 × 4)/39}
= Tk.1600

Question: In the first hour of a two-hour trip, a car traveled d kilometers, and in the second hour of the trip, the car traveled one-half that distance. What is the average rate at which the car traveled during the trip, in kilometers per hour?

Solution:
Total time travelled = 2 hrs
Distance travelled first hour = d
Distance travelled second hour = d/2

The question is asking for the avg speed at which the car travels for 2 hrs

We know that avg speed = total distance/total time

Lets place the information given in the question to the formula above = (d + d/2)/2

ব্যাখ্যা
Question: For the positive numbers, n, n + 1, n + 2, n + 4, and n + 8, the mean is how much greater than the median?

Solution:
To calculate the median, arrange the numbers in ascending order: {n, n + 1, n + 2, n + 4, n + 8}
Since we have an ODD number of values, the median is the middlemost term
Median = n + 2

The mean = [n + (n+1) + (n+2) + (n+4) + (n+8)]/5
= (5n + 15)/5
= n + 3

Difference = (n + 3) - (n + 2)
= 1

Two numbers when divided by a certain divisor give remainder 35 and 30 respectively and when their sum is divided by the same divisor, the remainder is 20, then the divisor is :
  1. ক) 40
  2. খ) 45
  3. গ) 50
  4. ঘ) 55
ব্যাখ্যা
The divisor should be (35 + 30) - 20 = 45
Reason:
Let us say the dividends are A and B and the common divisor be d
A = d*p + 35 … (1)
B = d*q + 30 … (2) [ p & q are respective quotients]
A + B=d(p + q) + 35 + 30
A + B = d(p + q) + 65
now since remainder is 20
A + B = d(p + q) + 45 + 20
So, the divisor must be 45

Solution:
Given,
(x - 1) is a factor of 4x3 + 3x2 - 4x + k
So x - 1 = 0
⇒ x = 1

∴ f(x) = 4x3 + 3x2 - 4x + k

Example: A, B, and C subscribe Tk. 45,000 for a business. A subscribes Tk. 6,000 more than B, and B subscribes Tk. 3,000 more than C. Out of a total profit of Tk. 30,000, how much does A receive?

Solution:
Let C subscribe x taka.
So, B subscribes x + 3000 taka,
and A subscribes x + 3000 + 6000 = x + 9000 taka.

x + x + 3000 + x + 9000 = 45000

⇒ 3x = 33000
⇒ x = 11000 taka

A receives = {(x + 9000)/45000} × 30000
= (20000/45000) × 30000
= 13333.33 taka
≈ 13333 taka

Question: The price of 10 chairs is equal to that of 4 tables. The price of 15 chairs and 2 tables together is Tk. 4000. The total price of 12 chairs and 3 tables is?

Solution:
Let,
The cost of a chair and that of table be Tk. x and Tk.y respectively.
Then,10x = 4y
⇒ y = (5/2)x

15x + 2y = 4000
15x + 2 × (5/2)x = 4000
15x + 5x = 4000
20x = 4000
x = 4000/20
x = 200

So, y = (5/2) × 200 = 500
Hence, the cost of 12chairs and 3 tables =12x + 3y
= Tk. {(12 × 200) + (3 × 500)}
= Tk. (2400 + 1500)
= Tk. 3900

  4. 550
ব্যাখ্যা

Question: A sum of TK. 600 amounts to TK. 720 in 4 years at simple interest. What will it amount to if the rate of interest is increased by 2%?

Solution: 
Given that,
Principal, P = Tk. 600 
Amount = Tk. 720
Time, n = 4 years
∴ Simple Interest, SI = Amount - Principal = 720 - 600 = Tk. 120

We know, 
SI = (P × r × n)/100
⇒ 120 = (600 × r × 4)/100
⇒ 120 = (2400 × r)/100
⇒ 120 = 24r
⇒ r = 120/24
∴ r = 5%

Again, 
New rate = original rate + 2% = 5% + 2% = 7%

∴ New SI = (P × r × n)/100
= (600 × 7 × 4)/100
= 16800/100
= Tk. 168

∴ New Amount = Principal + New Interest
= 600 + 168
= Tk. 768

∴ If the rate of interest is increased by 2%, the sum will amount to Tk. 768 in 4 years.

Solution:
Rate of interest = 5% per annum
Time = 2 year

ATQ,
P[{1 + (r/100)}n - 1] - {(P × r × t)/100} = 63
⇒ P[{1 + (5/100)}2 - 1] - {(P × 5 × 2)/100} = 63
⇒ P[{1 + (5/100)}2 - 1] - (10P/100) = 63
⇒ P[(105/100)2 - 1] - (10P/100) = 63
⇒ P{(11025 - 10000)/10000} - (10P/100) = 63
⇒ (1025P/10000) - (10P/100) = 63
⇒ (1025P - 1000P)/10000 = 63
⇒ 25P = 630000
⇒ P = 630000/25
⇒ P = 25200

Hence, sum Tk. 25200.

Question: The average price of the first five pens out of six is Tk. 12 and the average price of the last five is Tk. 16. If the price of the first pen is Tk. 50, what is the price of the last pen?

Solution:
Given that,
P1 = 50 taka
Average of first 5 = Tk. 12
Average of last 5 = Tk. 16

Let the prices of the 6 pens are- P1, P2, P3, P4, P5, P6

now,
 50 taka
Average of first 5 = 12 taka
Average of last 5 = 16 taka

Now,
Sum of first 5 pens is
P1 + P2 + P3 + P4 + P5 = 5 × 12 = 60 .......(1)
And,
Sum of last 5 pens is
P2 + P3 + P4 + P5 + P6 = 5 × 16 = 80 ........(2)

Now, subtract equation (1) from (2),
(P2 + P3 + P4 + P5 + P6) - (P1 + P2 + P3 + P4 + P5 ) = 80 - 50
⇒ P6 - P1 = 20
⇒ P6 - 50 = 20
⇒ P6 = 20 + 50
∴ P6 = 70

So the price of the last pen is Tk. 70

Question: Stefanie swam four-fifths of a lap in the morning and seven-fifteenths of a lap in the evening. How much farther did Stefanie swim in the morning than in the evening?

Solution:
Stefanie swam in the morning 4/5 of a lap
Stefanie swam in the evening 7/15 of a lap

Here, 4/5 = 12/15
∴ She swam more in morning (12/15 - 7/15)
= (12 - 7)/15
= 5/15
= 1/3

Question: In a shower 10 cm of rain falls. What is the volume of water that falls on 1.5 hectares of ground?

Solution:
1 hectare = 10000 m2
∴ 1.5 hectare = 1.5 × 10000 = 15000 m2

Depth = 10 cm = 10/100 m

∴ Volume of water = Area × Depth
= 15000 × (10/100) m3
= 1500 m3

∴ Volume and Surface Area = 1500 m3
