Question: The cost of a bicycle was Tk. 6000. The cost was reduced by 15% after it was increased by 20%. How much profit or loss percentage does it remain?

Solution: 
first the price was increased by 20% and then reduced by 15%
after increase the price is = (6000 + 20% of 6000)
= 7200

after reducing the price the price is = (7200 - 15% of 7200)
= 6120

profit = 6120 - 6000
= 120 

percentage = (120/6000)100%
= 2%

Distance of store = x feet
Now, Distance covered by son in one minute = 1 × 20
= 20 ft. and
Distance covered by father = 30 × 1.5
= 45 ft.
∴ Time taken by son = x/20 minutes = Time taken by father = x/45 minutes.
∴ x/20 = x/45 + 10
⇒ (x/20 - x/45) = 10
⇒ (9x - 4x)/180 = 10
⇒ 5x = 1800
⇒ x = 1800/5
⇒ x = 360 ft.

ব্যাখ্যা

Question: If the sum of three consecutive odd integers is 141, what is the largest number?

Solution:
Let the three consecutive odd integers be:
x,  x + 2,  x + 4

Accordingly:
x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 141
⇒ 3x + 6 = 141
⇒ 3x = 141 - 6
⇒ 3x = 135
⇒ x = 135/3
⇒ x = 45

So the numbers are:
45, 47, 49(Largest)

∴ The largest number is 49.

Question: A man's present age is two-fifth of the age of his mother. After 9 years, he will be one-half of the age of his mother. How old is the mother at present? 

Solution: 
Let mother's age be x years
Then, man's age = 2x/5 years

ATQ,
(2x/5) + 9 = (x + 9)/2 
⇒ (x/2) - (2x/5) = 9 - (9/2) 
⇒ (5x - 4x)/10 = (18 - 9)/2
⇒ x/10 = 9/2
⇒ x = (9 × 10)/2
⇒ x = 9 × 5
∴ x = 45 

∴ Mother's present age is 45 years

  1. 8% 
  2. 10% 
  3. 12% 
  4. 15%
ব্যাখ্যা

Question: A trader marks his goods at 40% above the cost price but allows a discount of 20% on the marked price. His profit percentage is-
 
Solution: 
Let
the Cost Price of the goods Tk.100

∴ Marked price of the goods  = 100 + 40% of 100
= 100 + (40 × 100)/100
= 100 + 40 
 = 140

∴ Selling Price of the goods = 80% of 140
= (140 × 80)/100
= 112

∴ profit = 112 - 100 = 12 Tk.

∴ profit percentage is = (12/100) × 100%
= 12%

Two friends Roman and Shimul invest in a grocery shop. Shimul invests Tk. 25000/- while Roman invests Tk. 35000. Third friend Salim, joins them with the condition that all of them must get equal share of profit. To do so, he gives Tk. 400000 to Roman and Shimul to share between themselves. Find the ratio in which Roman and Shimul should share the money given by Salim?
  1. ক) 5:7
  2. খ) 7:5
  3. গ) 7:13
  4. ঘ) 13:7
ব্যাখ্যা

The total value of investment of Roman and Shimul after 12 months is =
Tk. 35000 x 12 months : Tk. 25000 x 12 months = 420000 : 300000

Profits need to be the same so investment share must be the same too.

Now 400000 given by Salim needs to be shared by Roman and Shimul so that their investment value becomes the same.
∴ If Tk. X must be given to Roman,
Then,
420000 + X = 300000 + (400000-X)
∴ X = Tk. 140000 = Roman should get this much
Required ratio = Share of Roman: Share of Shimul
= 140000 : (400000 - 140000)
= 7 : 13.

Question: On dividing a number by 56, we get 29 as remainder. On dividing the same number by 8, what will be the remainder?

Solution: 
If a number divided by 56 leaves a remainder of 29, we can express it as:
Number = 56 × Quotient + 29

Now, to find the remainder when this number is divided by 8, let's try to simplify the expression.
Number = 56 × Quotient + 29

We know that 56 is divisible by 8, so let's express 56 in terms of 8:
56 = 8 × 7

Therefore, we can rewrite the expression for the number:
Number = 8 × 7 × Quotient + 29
Number = 8 × (7 × Quotient) + 29

Now, when we divide this expression by 8, we'll focus on the remainder:

8 × (7 × Quotient) leaves no remainder when divided by 8 because it's a multiple of 8.

So, the remainder when 29 is divided by 8 is 5.

What reminder of any perfect square is divided by 3?
  1. 0
  2. 1
  3. 0 or 1
  4. 0 and 1
  5. None
ব্যাখ্যা
When a perfect square is divided by 3, the remainder is always 0 or 1.
It is zero when the base number (a in case of a^2) is divisible by 3.
For example - 32 is divided by 3. So, we get 0 as a remainder.
For all other numbers, the square when divided by 3, the remainder is always 1.
When the number is divisible by 3, the remainder is obviously going to be zero.
Let’s say the number is not divisible by 3.
Such a number is always in the form of 3a + 1 or 3a - 1,
for example 4 = 3 × 2 + 1 and 5 = 3× 2  - 1.
Now, when you square 3a + 1,
you get 9a2 + 6a + 1.
Now 9a2 + 6a = 3×(3a2+2),
therefore that portion is divisible by 3 and what remains (remainder) is 1.
Similarly, when you square 3a - 1, you get 9a2 - 6a + 1.
Now 9a2 - 6a = 3×(3a2-2),
therefore that portion is divisible by 3 and what remains (remainder) is 1.
Thus, in all situations, we find that the remainder is 1 when the starting number is not divisible by 3.

Question: Find the first term of an arithmetic progression(A.P.) whose 8th and 12th terms are respectively 39 and 59.

Solution:
We know,
Arithmetic progression, nth term is  = a + (n - 1)d,
where a is the first term and d is the common difference.
Given that, 
8th term = 39 and 12th term = 59

Now,
8th term = a + 7d = 39 ........... (i)
12th term = a + 11d = 59 ........... (ii)
(i) - (ii) ⇒ a + 7d - a - 11d = 39 - 59
⇒ 4d = 20
 ∴ d = 5
Hence, a + 7 × 5 = 39
Thus, a = 39 - 35 = 4

 so the first term of the A.P. is 4.

If the length of the shorter diagonal is four, what is the length of the longer diagonal of this kite?

  3. 5√3
  4. 5√4
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: If the length of the shorter diagonal is four, what is the length of the longer diagonal of this kite?

Solution:
We can find the longer diagonal by adding together the altitude of the top triangle and the altitude of the bottom triangle. To find these, use Pythagorean Theorem. We can use Pythagorean Theorem because one of the properties of a kite is that the two diagonals are perpendicular.

The top triangle has two sides of length 3 [labeled in the picture], and a base of 4 [provided in the written directions]. To figure out the altitude, split this triangle into 2 right triangles. The two legs are x [the altitude] and 2 [half of the base 4], and the hypotenuse is 3:
x2 + 22 = 32
⇒ x2 + 4 = 9
⇒ x2 = 5
∴ x = √5

We will do something similar for the bottom triangle. Consider one of the right triangles. It will have a hypotenuse of 7, one leg that we don't know, x [the altitude], and one leg 2 [half the shorter diagonal]. Set up the equation using the Pythagorean Theorem:
x2 + 22 = 72
⇒ x2 + 4 = 49
⇒ x2 = 45
∴ x = √45 = 3√5

∴ The length of the longer diagonal of this kite = 3√5 + √5 = 4√5

Question: Akash lends a part of Tk. 20000 at 8% simple interest and remaining at (4/3)% simple interest. His total income after a year was Tk. 800. Find the sum lent at 8%.

Solution:
Amount lent at 8% rate of interest = Tk. x
Amount lent at 4/3 % rate of interest = Tk. (20000 - x)

∴ S.I. = (Principal × Rate × Time)/100
{(x × 8 × 1)/100} + [{(20000 - x) × (4/3) × 1}/100] = 800
⇒ (2x/25) + {(20000 - x)/75} = 800
⇒ (6x + 20000 - x)/75 = 800
⇒ 5x + 20,000 = 75 × 800 = 60000

If a sum triples in 15 years at simple interest, how much will it be in 10 years?
  1. 1/3 times
  2. 2/3 times
  3. 5/3 times
  4. 7/3 times
ব্যাখ্যা

Question: If a sum triples in 15 years at simple interest, how much will it be in 10 years?

Solution:
Let, Principal = P

If the sum triples in 15 years,
Amount after 15 years = 3P

∴ Simple interest for 15 years = 3P - P
= 2P

So, Simple interest for 1 year = 2P/15

∴ Simple interest for 10 years = (2P/15) × 10
= 20P/15
= 4P/3

Amount after 10 years = P + 4P/3
= 7P/3

Hence, the sum will be = 7/3 times the principal.

ব্যাখ্যা
Question: A bus trip of 450 miles would have taken 1 hour less if the average speed S for the trip had been greater by 5 miles per hour. What was the average speed S, in miles per hour, for the trip?

Solution:
Average Speed = S 
∴ Time reqired in Average Speed = 450/S

Time required in speed S for the trip had been greater by 5 miles per hour = 450/(S + 5)

So, we get:
450/S - 450/(S + 5) = 1
⇒ 450/S = 450/(S + 5) + 1
⇒ 450 = 450S/(S + 5) + S
⇒ 450(S + 5) = 450S + S(S + 5)
⇒ 450S + 2250 = 450S + S2 + 5S
⇒ 2250 = S2 + 5S
⇒ S2 + 5S - 2250 = 0
⇒ (S + 50)(S - 45) = 0
∴ S = - 50, OR S = 45
Since the speed can't be negative, the correct answer must be S = 45

  3. 12 km/hr
  4. 23 km/hr
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: A boat goes 15 km downstream in 45 minutes. The speed of stream is 3km/hr. The speed of boat in still water is-

Solution: 
স্রোতের প্রতিকূলে 45 মিনিটে যায় 15 কি.মি.
স্রোতের প্রতিকূলে 1 মিনিটে যায় 15/45 কি.মি.
স্রোতের প্রতিকূলে 1 ঘণ্টা বা 60 মিনিটে যায় (15 × 60)/45 কি.মি./ঘণ্টা
= 20 কি.মি./ঘণ্টা

স্রোতের বেগ = 3 কি.মি./ঘণ্টা
স্থির পানিতে নৌকার বেগ = (20 - 3) কি.মি./ঘণ্টা
= 17 কি.মি./ঘণ্টা

A horse covers a distance of 1500 meters in 1 minute 20 seconds. At what speed the horse is running?
  1. 67.2 km/hr
  2. 67.7 km/hr
  3. 67.5 km/hr
  4. 67.9 km/hr
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: A horse covers a distance of 1500 meters in 1 minute 20 seconds. At what speed the horse is running?

Solution:
Distance = 1500 meters
Time = 1 minute 20 seconds = 60 + 20 = 80 seconds

So, Required Speed = 1500/80 = 75/4 m/s

We need answer in km/hr:
So, Speed in km/hr = (75/4) × (18/5) = 67.5 km/hr

A store runs a "Buy 3, Get 1 Free" offer. What is the equivalent discount percentage?
  1. 20%
  2. 25%
  3. 30%
  4. 16%
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: A store runs a "Buy 3, Get 1 Free" offer. What is the equivalent discount percentage?

Solution:
Assume the price of each item = 1 Taka.
Then,
Cost of 3 items = 3 Taka
Since 1 item is received for free, total items = 3 + 1 = 4

After the discount,
Cost of 4 items = 3 Taka
∴ Cost per item = 3/4 Taka

Actual price per item = 1 Taka
∴ Discount per item = 1 − ( 3/4 ) = 1/4 Taka

So, discount on 1 Taka = 1/4 Taka
∴ Discount on 100 Taka = 100 × ( 1/4 ) = 25 Taka

Therefore, in a “Buy 3, Get 1 Free” offer, the equivalent discount is 25%.

Question: A new square is formed by joining the midpoints of the sides of a square. The same process is repeated indefinitely. If the side of the first square is 4 cm, find the sum of the areas of all the squares

Solution:
Side of the first square is 4 cm.
side of second square = 2√2 cm.
Side of third square = 2 cm.
Side of fourth square = √2 cm.
...............................
...............................

Area of these squares will be = 16, 8, 4, 2, ........................
the sum of the areas of all the squares = 16 + 8 + 4 + 2, ........................
= 16/{1 - (1/2)}
= 16/(1/2)
= 32 cm2

If 2n - 1 + 2n + 1 = 640, then n is equal to-
  1. ক) 2
  2. খ) 3
  3. গ) 7
  4. ঘ) 8
ব্যাখ্যা
2n - 1 + 2n + 1 = 640
⇒ 2n.2- 1 + 2n. 21 = 640
⇒ 2n(1/2) + 2n .2 = 640
⇒ 2n(2 + 1/2) = 640 
⇒ 2n (5/2) = 640 
⇒ 2n = (640 × 2)/5
⇒ 2n = 128 × 2
⇒ 2n = 256
⇒ 2n = 28
∴ n = 8
