  5. ঙ) None
ব্যাখ্যা
Price of 6 mangoes = Price of 9 oranges
⇒ (Price of 1 mango) : (Price of 1 orange) = 9/6 = 3 : 2
Suppose, the price of each mango is Tk. 3x, and the price of each orange is Tk. 2x.
According to the question,
50×3x + 30×2x = 420
⇒ x = 2
Price of each mango = 3×2 = Tk. 6.

  1. 4.5%
  2. 5%
  3. 6.4%
  4. 10%
ব্যাখ্যা

Question: An amount of Tk. 12,000 yields a simple interest of Tk. 2,160 in 4 years. What is the annual rate of interest?

Solution:
Given, Principal, P = 12000
Simple Interest, SI = 2160
Time, n = 4 years
Rate of interest, r = ?

We know, I = Pnr/100
⇒ r = (I × 100)/(P × n)
⇒ r = (2160 × 100)/(12000 × 4)
⇒ r = 216000/48000
⇒ r = 4.5%

So, the annual rate of interest is 4.5%.

Question: X’s age 3 years ago was three times the present age of Y. At present Z’s age is twice the age of Y and also Z is 12 years younger than X. What is the present age of Z?

Solution:
Let,
Their present age is X, Y, Z respectively.

As X’s age 3 years ago was three times the present age of Y.
X - 3 = 3y
X - 3y = 3……….(i)

Z’s age is twice the age of Y
∴ Z = 2Y……….(ii)

Z is 12 years younger than X
∴ X - 12 = Z 
Or, X - 12 = 2Y [ putting Z = 2Y from equation (ii) ]
Or, X - 2Y = 12……..(iii)

(iii) - (i),
X - 2Y - X + 3Y = 12 - 3
Or, Y = 9

So, the present age of Y is 9.
∴ the present age of Z is = 2Y = 2 x 9 = 18 years.

For expression I: (y - 1)(y - 4)
Since y > 1, (y - 1) will be positive.
Since y < 4, (y - 4) will be negative.
∴ (y - 1)(y - 4) = positive × negative = negative

For expression II: (1 - y)(y - 4)
Since y > 1, (1 - y) will be negative. 
Since y < 4, (y - 4) will be negative.
∴ (1 - y)(y - 4) = negative × negative = positive

For expression III: (1 - y)(4 - y)
Since y > 1, so (1 - y) will be negative. 
Since y < 4, so (4 - y) will be positive.
∴ (1 - y)(4 - y) = negative × positive = negative

∴ Only expression II is positive.

Question: If p and q are two positive integers and p + q = 5 and we need to find the probability that p equals 1.

Solution:
Let's start by writing all the possible outcomes for p + q = 5, given that both p and q are positive integers.
The possible outcomes are:

p = 1, q = 4
p = 2, q = 3
p = 3, q = 2
p = 4, q = 1

So, Total Number of Outcomes = 4
Number of Favorable outcomes in which p = 1 is 1 (p = 1, q = 4)

∴ The probability = 1/4

Poltu divided one-third of his money in a 2 : 3 ratio between Ratul and Shovon, and the remainder in the same ratio between Nitul and Sanhar. If Sanhar received 360 Tk, what was Poltu's total amount?
  1. 1800 Tk
  2. 600 Tk
  3. 900 Tk
  4. 1500 Tk
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: Poltu divided one-third of his money in a 2 : 3 ratio between Ratul and Shovon, and the remainder in the same ratio between Nitul and Sanhar. If Sanhar received 360 Tk, what was Poltu's total amount?

Solution: 
If Sanhar received 360 Tk,
Nitul received = (360/3) × 2 Tk
= 240 Tk

Total amount Nitul and Sanhar received = 360 + 240 Tk
= 600 Tk [which is {1 - (1/3)} or 2/3 of total amount]

∴ Total amount = (600/2) × 3 Tk
= 900 Tk

A is four years older than B, who is thrice as old as C. If the total of the ages of A, B, and C is 46, how old is A?
  1. 16 years
  2. 24 years
  3. 18 years
  4. 22 years
ব্যাখ্যা

Question: A is four years older than B, who is thrice as old as C. If the total of the ages of A, B, and C is 46, how old is A?

Solution:
Let
C's age be = a years
Then, B's age = 3a years
A's age = (3a + 4) years

∴ (3a + 4) + 3a + a = 32
⇒ 7a + 4 = 46
⇒ 7a = 42
⇒ a = 6

Hence, A's age = (3 × 6) + 4 = 22 years.

Question: The sum of 2 positive numbers is 151. The lesser number is 19 more than the square root of the greater number. What is the value of the greater number minus the lesser number?

Solution:
Let the two positive numbers be x and y; x > y

ATQ,
x + y = 151 ---------- (1)
y = 19 + √x​ ---------- (2)

Putting the value y = 19 + √x​ in equ (1)
x + 19 + √x = 151
⇒ x + √x = 151 - 19
⇒ x + √x = 132
⇒ √x = 132 - x
⇒ (√x)2 = (132 - x)2
⇒ x = (132)2 - 2 . 132 . x + x2
⇒ x2 - 265x + 17424 = 0
∴ x = 121, 144

The value of x can be 121 and 144.
The value of x = 144 cannot be possible as it doesn’t satisfies the two condition.
Therefore the value of x is 121​.

From equ. (1) we get,
y = 151 - 121
y = 30

∴ The value of greatest number minus the  lesser would be x-y, i.e,  121 - 30 = 91

  4. 7/12
ব্যাখ্যা

Question: A box contains 5 green, 3 yellow, and 4 black balls. If one ball is drawn at random, what is the probability that it will not be a green ball?

Solution:
Given that,
Green balls = 5
Yellow balls = 3
Black balls = 4
∴ Total balls = 5 + 3 + 4 = 12

And, number of non-green balls = Yellow + Black = 3 + 4 = 7

We know,
P(not green) = favorable outcomes/total outcomes
= 7/12

∴ The probability of drawing a non-green ball is 7/12

ব্যাখ্যা
Question: If the area of the trapezium, whose parallel sides are 6 cm and 10 cm is 32 sq. cm, what will be the distance between the parallel sides?

Solution:
Parallel sides of a trapezium = 6 cm, and 10 cm
Area of trapezium = (1/2)(sum of the parallel sides) × distance between the parallel sides
32 = (1/2)(6 + 10 ) × distance 
⇒ 32 = 8 × distance
⇒ distance = 32/8 = 4 cm

So, the distance between the parallel lines of trapezium = 4 cm.

Question:

If A is the center of the circle shown above and AB = BC = CD, What is the value of x? [Note: Figure not drawn to scale]

Solution:
Given that AB = BC = CD,
also since AB is the radius then AB = AC = AD = radius,
so we have that: AB = BC = CD = AC = AD,
so basically we have two equilateral triangles ABC and ACD with common base of AC (ABC and ACD are mirror images of each other). Line segment BD cuts the angle ABC in half and since all angles in equilateral triangle equal to 60 degrees then x=60/2=30 degrees.

⇒ 3a = 2(a + 1) + 5
⇒ 3a = 2a + 2 + 5
⇒ 3a = 2a + 7
⇒ 3a - 2a = 7
⇒ a = 7

∴ The numbers are 7 and 8.
Product = 7 × 8 = 56

ধরি, কোণকের উচ্চতা = h সে.মি.

আমরা জানি,
কোণকের আয়তন, V = 1/3 × π × r2 × h
∴ 300π = 1/3 × π × 62 × h
⇒ 300 = 1/3 × 36 × h (π উভয় পক্ষ থেকে বাদ দিয়ে)
⇒ 300 = 12h
⇒ h = 300 / 12
∴ h = 25 সে.মি.

অতএব, কোণকটির উচ্চতা = 25 সে.মি.

  4. 60
ব্যাখ্যা

Question: The mean weight of 100 students in a class is 46 kg. The mean weight of boys is 50 and of girls is 40 kg. Therefore, the number of boys is-

Solution:
Given that, 
Total students = 100
Mean weight of all students = 46 kg
∴ Total weight of all students = 100 × 46 = 4600 kg.

Let,
The number of boys = x. Then, the number of girls = 100 - x 
Mean weight of boys = 50 kg,
∴ total weight of boys = 50x
And, 
Mean weight of girls = 40 kg,
∴ total weight of girls = 40(100 - x)

ATQ,
50x + 40 × (100 - x) = 4600
⇒ 50x + 4000 - 40x = 4600
⇒ 10x = 4600 - 4000
⇒ x = 600/10
∴ x = 60

So the number of boys is 60.

ব্যাখ্যা
Question: A and B can complete a work in 15 days and 10 days respectively. They started doing the work together but after 2 days, B had to leave and A alone completed the remaining work. The whole work was completed in:

Solution:
Work done by (A + B) in 1 day
= (1/15) + (1/10)
= (2 + 3)/30
= 5/30
= 1/6

(A + B)’s 2 days’ work = 2/6
= 1/3

∴ Remaining work = 1 -  (1/3)
= 2/3

This part is done by A alone.
Since, one work is done by A in 15 days.
2/3 work is done in = 15 × (2/3)
= 10 days

So, Total number of days = (10 + 2) 12 days
= 12 days

Question: Three pipes A, B, and C are connected to a tank. Out of the three, A and B are the inlet pipes and C is the outlet pipe. If opened separately, A fills the tank in 10 hours, B fills the tank in 12 hours and C empties the tank in 30 hours. If all three are opened simultaneously, how much time does it take to fill / empty the tank?

Solution:
Solution:
Part of tank filled by pipe A in one hour working alone = 1/10
Part of tank filled by pipe B in one hour working alone = 1/12
Part of tank emptied by pipe C in one hour working alone = 1/30

Part of tank filled by pipes A, B and C in one hour working together = (1/10) + (1/12) - (1/30)
= (6 + 5 - 2)/60
= 9/60
= 3/20

Therefore, time taken to completely fill the tank if A, B and C work together = 20/3 hours

Solution:
Let the total work be completed in y days.

∴ A worked for (y - 4) days
So his contribution = (y - 4)/20

B worked for (y - 6) days
So his contribution = (y - 6)/30

C worked full y days, so his contribution = y/60

Therefore,
(y - 4)/20 + (y - 6)/30 + y/60 = 1
⇒ 3(y - 4) + 2(y - 6) + y = 60
⇒ 3y - 12 + 2y - 12 + y = 60
⇒ 6y - 24 = 60
⇒ 6y = 84
⇒ y = 14

∴ The total work was completed in 14 days.

Let, ten’s digit = x.
Then, unit’s digit = x².
∴ number = 10x + x².

Since x² > x, 
so, the number formed by interchanging the digits is greater than the original number. 

∴ (10x² + x) - (10x + x²) = 54
 ⇒ 9x² - 9x = 54 
⇒ x² - x = 6 
⇒ x² - x - 6 = 0 
⇒ x² - 3x + 2x - 6 = 0
⇒ x(x - 3) + 2(x - 3) = 0
⇒ (x - 3) (x + 2) = 0 
⇒ x = 3. [∵ it is positive number]

 So, ten’s digit = 3, unit’s digit = 3² = 9. 
∴ Original number = 39.
 Required result = 40% of 39
= (40/100) × 39 = 15.6.

Question: Weekly incomes of two persons are in the ratio of 7 : 3 and their weekly expenses are in the ratio of 5 : 2. If each of them saves Tk. 300 per week, find their weekly incomes.

Solution:
Let the incomes of the two persons be 7x and 3x 
And their expenses be 5y and 2y respectively.

Then we get,
7x - 5y = 3x - 2y
⇒ 4x = 3y
∴ y = 4x/3

Now, 7x - 5y = 300
⇒ 7x - 5(4x/3) = 300
⇒ (21x - 20x)/3 = 300 
∴ x = Tk. 900

∴ Weekly income of first person = (7 × 900) = Tk. 6300
∴ Weekly income of second person = (3 × 900) = Tk. 2700

So weekly incomes are Tk. 6300 and Tk. 2700

Solution:
1st mixture contains 5% salt.
2nd mixture contains 75% water i.e. 25 % salt.
Required % of salt = 18%.
∴ Required ratio = 25 - 18 : 18 - 5 = 7 : 13
and required price of the mixture = 7.82 - x : x - 7.62 = 7 : 13 [Let, patient pays Tk. x per kg]
⇒ 13(7.82 - x) = 7(x - 7.62)
⇒ 101.66 - 13x = 7x - 53.34
⇒ 20x = 155
⇒ x = 7.75
Hence price of 5 liters of this mixture = 7.75 × 5 = Tk. 38.75.

Question: Polash and Hasan started a business with the investment of Tk.6000 and Tk.5000 respectively and after 6 months, Mehedi joined with the investment of Tk.3000. At the end of the year, the total profit is Tk.5000. Find the Hasan’s profit share?

Solution:
Polash invest = 6000 × 12 =72,000
Hasan invest = 5000 × 12 = 60,000
Mehedi invest = 3000 × 6=18,000

The ratio of their investments is = 72,000 : 60,000 : 18,000
= 12 : 10 : 3

The total profit is Tk. 5000

Now,
Hasan’s share of the profit is = (10/25) × 5000 = 2000

∴ Hasan’s share of the profit is Tk. 2000

Three unbiased coins are tossed simultaneously. What is the probability of getting at most one tail? 
  1. 1/3
  2. 1/4
  3. 1/2
  4. 1/5
ব্যাখ্যা

Question: Three unbiased coins are tossed simultaneously. What is the probability of getting at most one tail?

Solution: Total outcomes = 23 = 8 (HHH, HHT, HTH, THH, HTT, THT, TTH, TTT)

Favorable outcomes = cases with at most one tail (zero tails or exactly one tail) = (HHH, HHT, HTH, THH)

At most one tail refers to zero or one tail only.

Therefore, Probability = Favorable outcomes / Total outcomes = 4/8 = 1/2

A bag contains red, blue, and green balls in the ratio 3 : 5 : 7. If there are 45 blue balls, how many total balls are there in the bag?
  1. 90
  2. 105

  4. 135
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: A bag contains red, blue, and green balls in the ratio 3 : 5 : 7. If there are 45 blue balls, how many total balls are there in the bag?

Solution: Given ratio = Red : Blue : Green = 3 : 5 : 7
Let the numbers be:
Red = 3x, Blue = 5x, Green = 7x

Given:
5x = 45
⇒ x = 45 ÷ 5 = 9

Now calculate total balls:
= 3x + 5x + 7x
= (3 + 5 + 7)x = 15x
= 15 × 9 = 135

If p : q = 7 : 3, then the value of 5p + 70 : 3q + 18 is
  1. 30 : 7
  2. 35 : 9
  3. 25 : 9
  4. None of these
ব্যাখ্যা
p : q = 7 : 3
or, p/q = 7/3
or, 5p/3q = (5 × 7)/(3 × 3)
or, 5p/3q = 35/9
or, 5p/35 = 3q/9
or, (5p + 70)/35 = (3q + 18)/9
or, (5p + 70)/(3q + 18) = 35/9
or, (5p + 70) : (3q + 18) = 35 : 9
---------------------------------
Short-cut
p = 7, q = 3
5p + 70 : 3q + 18 = 5 × 7 + 70 : 3 × 3 + 18 = 105 : 27 = 35 : 9

The difference of two numbers is 1365. On dividing the larger number by the smaller, we get 6 as quotient and the 15 as remainder. What is the smaller number?
  1. ক) 270
  2. খ) 1270
  3. গ) 350
  4. ঘ) 720
ব্যাখ্যা
Let the bigger number be x and smaller number be y
ATQ, x - y = 1365 ...... (i)
and, 6y + 15 = x ....... (ii)
By solving the equation we get, y = 270
So, the smaller number is 270

A fruit seller had some oranges. He sells 40% oranges and still has 420 oranges. How many oranges did he have originally?
  1. 500
  2. 700
  3. 850
  4. 675
  5. 600
ব্যাখ্যা

He sells 40% of oranges and still there are 420 oranges remaining.
=> 60% of oranges = 420
=> Total oranges × 60 /100 = 420
=> Total oranges = 420 × 100/ 60 = 700

প্রশ্ন: আবির একটি নির্দিষ্ট কাজ সম্পন্ন করার জন্য বাবুলের দ্বিগুণ বা কবিরের তিনগুন সময় নেয়। তারা একত্রে ২ দিন কাজ করলে কাজটি শেষ করতে পারে। তাহলে বাবুল কতদিনে কাজটি করতে পারে?

সমাধান:
ধরি,
আবির সময় নেয় = ক দিন
বাবলু সময় নেয় = ক/২ দিন
কবির সময় নেয় = ক/৩ দিন

প্রশ্নমতে,
(১/ক) + (২/ক) + (৩/ক) = ১/২
⇒ (১ + ২ + ৩)/ক = ১/২
⇒ ৬/ক = ১/২
⇒ ক = ১২

∴ কাজটি শেষ করতে বাবলু সময় নেয় = ১২/২ = ৬ দিন
