Question: If dividing P(x) = 5x3 + 6x2 - ax + 6 by x - 2 results the remainder 6 then find the value of a.

Solution:
Dividing P(x) by x - 2 we will get the remainder
∴  P(2) = 5 × 23 + 6 × 22 - a × 2 + 6
= 40 + 24 - 2a + 6
= 70 - 2a

ATQ,
70 - 2a = 6
⇒ 2a = 70 - 6
⇒ 2a = 64
∴ a = 32

Question: W, X, Y and Z are four different positive integers. When X is divided by Y, the quotient is Z and the remainder is W. If W = X - 7, what is the sum of all possible values of W?

Solution:
From the given information, we can write: X = YZ + W
Also given: W = X - 7

X = YZ + W
⇒ X = YZ + X - 7
⇒ 0 = YZ - 7
∴ 7 = YZ

There are only 2 possible cases:
case 1: Y = 1 and Z = 7
case 2: Y = 7 and Z = 1

case 1 yields a CONTRADICTION.
If Y = 1, then we are dividing X by 1, and if we divide by 1, the remainder will always be ZERO.
In other words, if Y = 1, then W = 0 So, we can definitely rule out case 1,

It must be the case that Y = 7 and Z = 1 (case 2)

So, we have: When X is divided by 7, the quotient is 1 and the remainder is W
This tells us that 7 divides into X 1 time
So, the possible values of X are: 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13 (since 7 divides into each value 1 time.

Let's check each case.
If X = 7,
then the remainder (W) is 0. 
Doesn't follow the rule.

If X = 8,
then the remainder (W) is 1.
Since Y = W,
Doesn't follow the rule.

If X = 9,
then the remainder (W) is 2.
So, when X (9) is divided by 7 (Y), the quotient (Z) is 1, and the remainder (W) is 2.
Follows the rule.

If X = 10,
then the remainder (W) is 3.
So, when X (10) is divided by 7 (Y), the quotient (Z) is 1, and the remainder (W) is 3.
Follows the rule.

If X = 11,
then the remainder (W) is 4.
So, when X (11) is divided by 7 (Y), the quotient (Z) is 1, and the remainder (W) is 4.
Follows the rule.

If X = 12,
then the remainder (W) is 5.
So, when X (12) is divided by 7 (Y), the quotient (Z) is 1, and the remainder (W) is 5.
Follows the rule.

If X = 13,
then the remainder (W) is 6.
So, when X (13) is divided by 7 (Y), the quotient (Z) is 1, and the remainder (W) is 6.
Follows the rule.

Question: Abid, Bulbul, and Kabil are partners in a business. Their shares are in the proposition of (1/3) : (1/4) : (1/5). Abir withdraws half of his capital after 15 months and after another 15 months, a profit of Tk. 4340 is divided. The share of Kabil's is -

Solution:
Ratio of initial investments = 1/3 : 1/4 : 1/5
= 20 : 15 : 12

Let their initial investments be 20x, 15x and 12x respectively.

Abid : Bulbul : Kabil = (20x × 15) + (10x × 15): (15x × 30) : (12x × 30)
= 450x : 450x : 360x
= 5 : 5 : 4

Sum of the ratio = 5 + 5 + 4 = 14.
∴ Kabil's share = 4340 × (4/14)
= 1240 Tk.

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.

A wheel of a car of radius 35 cm is rotating at 500 RPM. What is the speed of the car in km/hr?
  1. 50
  2. 55 km/hr
  3. 60 km/hr
  4. 66 km/hr
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: A wheel of a car of radius 35 cm is rotating at 500 RPM. What is the speed of the car in km/hr?

Solution:
The radius of the wheel measures 35 cm.
In one rotation, the wheel will cover a distance which is equal to the circumference of the wheel.
∴ in one rotation this wheel will cover 2 × π × 35 = 2 × (22/7) × 35 = 220 cm.

In a minute, the distance covered by the wheel = circumference of the wheel × rpm
∴ this wheel will cover a distance of 220 × 500 = 110000 cm in a minute.

In an hour, the wheel will cover a distance of 110000 × 60 = 6600000 cm.
Therefore, the speed of the car = 6600000 cm/hr = 66 km/hr

Question: A sum of money lent out at simple interest amounts to Tk. 720 after 2 years and Tk. 1020 after a further period of 5 years. Find the principal?

Solution:
According to the question,
Principal + Simple interest for 2 years = Tk. 720 ------------- (1)
Principal + Simple interest for 7 years = Tk. 1020 ------------ (2)

Subtracting equation (1) from (2)
Principal + Simple interest for 7 years = Tk. 1020
Principal + Simple interest for 2 years = Tk. 720
--------------------------------------------------------
∴ Simple interest for 5 years = Tk. 300
⇒ Simple interest for 1 years = Tk. 300/5
⇒ Simple interest for 1 year = Tk. 60
⇒ Simple interest for 2 years = Tk. (60 × 2)
∴ Simple interest for 2 years = = Tk. 120

∴ Principal amount = (Amount after 2 years - 2 years Simple interest)
⇒ Principal amount = Tk. (720 - 120)
∴ Principal amount = Tk. 600

Question: A farmer travelled a distance of 61 km in 9 hours. He travelled partly on foot 4 km/hr and partly on bicycle at 9 km/hr. The distance travelled on foot is:

Solution:
Let the distance travelled on foot be x km
Then,
distance travelled on bicycle = (61 - x) km

So,
x/4 + (61 - x)/9 = 9
⇒ 9x + 4(61 - x) = 9
⇒ 9x + 244 - 4x = 9 × 36
⇒ 5x = 324 - 244
⇒ 5x = 80
⇒ x = 80/5
∴ x = 16 km.

∴ The distance travelled on foot is 16 km.

  5. 15.09%
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: Rana earns 30% more than Mina. Tina earns 60% more than Mina. How much % is the wages earned by Tina more than that earned by Rana?

Solution:
Let's assume Mina's wage is 100 tk.
Rana's wage = 100 + (30% of 100) =130 tk
Tina's wage = 100 + (60% of 100) = 160 tk

Percentage difference = (Difference in wages/Rana's wage) × 100
= {(Tina's wage - Rana's wage)/Rana's wage} × 100
= {(160 - 130)/130} × 100
= 23.08%
Therefore, the wages earned by Tina is 23.08% more than the wages earned by Rana.

প্রশ্ন: দুইটি ট্রেন দুটি স্টেশন থেকে একসাথে যাত্রা শুরু করে পরস্পরের দিকে রওনা দেয়। স্টেশন দুটি ২০০ কিমি দূরে অবস্থিত। তারা একে অপরকে একটি স্টেশন থেকে ১১০ কিমি দূরত্বে অতিক্রম করে। ট্রেন দুইটির গতিবেগের অনুপাত কত?

সমাধান:
ধরি,
প্রথম ট্রেনের গতিবেগ = ক কিমি/ঘণ্টা
দ্বিতীয় ট্রেনের গতিবেগ = খ কিমি/ঘণ্টা

প্রথম ট্রেন অতিক্রম করে = ১১০ কিমি
দ্বিতীয় ট্রেন অতিক্রম করে = ২০০ - ১১০ = ৯০ কিমি

যেহেতু উভয় ট্রেন একসাথে শুরু করে এবং একই সময়ে একে অপরকে অতিক্রম করে, অতএব তাদের সময় সমান।

সময় = দূরত্ব/গতি

তাহলে,
১১০/ক = ৯০/খ
⇒ ক/খ = ১১০/৯০
⇒ ক : খ = ১১০ : ৯০
⇒ ক : খ = ১১ : ৯

∴ ট্রেন দুইটির গতির অনুপাত ১১ : ৯

Question: If (x + 7)2 = 81, which of the following can be the value of (x - 5)? 

Solution: 
Given that,
(x + 7)2 = 81
⇒ x + 7 = ± √81
x + 7 = ± 9
So there are two possible solutions.

Case 1: (Positive value) 
x + 7 = 9
⇒ x = 9 - 7

The sum and difference of the L.C.M and H.C.F of two numbers are 592 and 518 respectively. If the sum of the numbers be 296, find the product of the numbers.

সমাধান:
Given That,
LCM + HCF = 592 .................(1)
LCM - HCF = 518 .....................(2)

From (1) + (2), we get 
2LCM = 1110
∴ LCM = 555

Now,
LCM + HCF = 592
⇒ HCF = 592 - LCM
⇒ HCF = 592 - 555
∴  HCF = 37


We know that,
Product of two numbers = LCM × HCF
= 555 × 37

  3. 14%
  4. 12%
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: A shopkeeper takes 10% profit on his goods. He lost 20% of his goods during a theft. What is his loss percent?

Solution:
Let the number of goods be 100, and
C.P. of each item be Tk. 1
∴ Total C.P. = Tk. 100
Profit% on each item = 10%

20% of goods are lost in a theft
Number of goods left = 80
Now,
S.P. of 1 item = [(100 + 10)/100] × 1 = Tk. 1.10
S.P. of 80 items = 80 × 1.10 = Tk. 88

Loss = 100 - 88 = 12
Loss% = (12/100) × 100% = 12%
Thus, the shopkeeper bears 12% loss.

ব্যাখ্যা
Question: The angles of elevation of the top of a tower from the top and bottom of a tree of height 15 m are 30° and 60° respectively. Find the height of the tower?

Solution:

Let the CE be h meter.
Height of tree be AD = 15m
BE is the height of tower = BC + CE = 15 + h
AB = CD, let it is = X m

From ΔCDE, 
tan30° = EC/CD
⇒ 1/√3 = h/X
∴ X = √3h ..........(1)

From ΔABE, 
tan60° = EB/AB
⇒ √3 = (h + 15)/X
∴ X = (h + 15)/√3 ..............(2)

From (1) and (2) we get,
√3h = (h + 15)/√3
⇒ 3h = h + 15
⇒ 2h = 15
∴ h = 7.5

∴ Height of tower = 15 + 7.5 = 22.5 m

Question: The angle of elevation of an aeroplane from a point A on the ground is 60°. After a straight flight of the plane for 30 seconds, the angle of elevation becomes 30°. If the palne flies at a constant height of 3600√3 metre, what is the speed of plane?

Solution:

P and Q = Positions of plane
∠PAB = 60°, ∠QAB = 30°, PB = 3600√3 metre
In ∆ABP, tan 60° = BP/AB
⇒ √3 = 3600√3/AB
⇒ AB = 3600 metre

In ∆ACQ, tan 30° = CQ/AC
⇒ 1/√3 = 3600√3/AC
⇒ AC = 3600 × 3 = 10800 metre
∴ PQ = BC = AC – AB = 10800 – 3600 = 7200 metre
This distance is covered in 30 seconds.

∴ Speed of plane = 7200/30 = 240 m/sec

Efficiency of pipe B = 30/30 = 1 units/hour
Combined efficiency of pipes A and B = 4 units/hour

Therefore, time taken to completely fill the tank if only A and B are opened = 30/4 = 7 hours 30 minutes 
Time taken to completely fill the tank if all pipes are opened = 7 hours 30 minutes + 30 minutes = 8 hours 
Combined efficiency of all pipes = 30/8 = 3.75 units/hour

Now, efficiency of pipe C = Combined efficiency of all three pipes - Combined efficiency of pipes A and B
Therefore, efficiency of pipe C = 4 - 3.75 = 0.25 units/hour
Thus, time taken to empty the tank if only C is opened = 30/0.25 = 120 hours.

In how many different ways can the letters of the word 'BANKING' be arranged so that the vowels always come together?
  1. 120
  2. 240
  3. 540
  4. 720
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: In how many different ways can the letters of the word 'BANKING' be arranged so that the vowels always come together?

Solution:
In the word 'BANKING' we treat the two vowels 'A' and 'I' as one letter.
Thus, we have BNKNG(AI)

This has 6 letters of which N occurs 2 times and the rest are different.
As we know that number of ways of arranging n letters out of which r are of same type = n!/r!
Number of ways of arranging these letters = 6!/2! = 360

Now 2 vowels (A,l) can be arranged in 2! = 2 ways

∴ Required number of ways = 360 × 2 = 720

The length of the bridge, which a train 150 meters long and travelling at 45 km/h can cross in 30 seconds, is-
  1. 220 meters
  2. 225 meters
  3. 235 meters
  4. 250 meters
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: The length of the bridge, which a train 150 metres long and travelling at 45 km/h can cross in 30 seconds, is-

Solution:
Given,
Speed = 45 km/hr
= 45 × (5/18) m/sec
=25/2 m/sec
Time = 30 sec

Let, the length of bridge = x metres

Now
(150 + x)/30 = 25/2
⇒ 300 + 2x = 750
⇒ 2x = 750 - 300
⇒ 2x = 450
⇒ x = 450/2
∴ x = 225

ব্যাখ্যা

Question: If k is a positive integer, what is the smallest possible value of k such that 1080 × k is the square of an integer?

Solution:
আমরা জানি, একটি সংখ্যা পূর্ণবর্গ হতে হলে এর মৌলিক গুণনীয়কের ঘাতসমূহ জোড় সংখ্যা হতে হবে।

1080 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 5
= 23 × 33 × 5

1080k = 23 × 33 × 5 × k

এখন,
এখন k এর মান 2 × 3 × 5 = 30  হলে, 1080k একটি পূর্ণবর্গ সংখ্যা হবে।
1080 × 30 = (23 × 33 × 5) × (2 × 3 × 5)
= 24 × 34 × 52

যেহেতু এই গুণফলের সব মৌলিক উৎপাদকের ঘাত জোড়, তাই এটি একটি পূর্ণবর্গ সংখ্যা।
সুতরাং, k = 30 হলে 1080 × k পূর্ণবর্গ সংখ্যা হয়।

A sum of money amounts to Tk. 5200 in 5 years and to Tk. 5680 in 7 years at simple interest. The rate of interest per annum is?
  1. 5%
  2. 7%
  3. 6%
  4. 8%
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: A sum of money amounts to Tk. 5200 in 5 years and to Tk. 5680 in 7 years at simple interest. The rate of interest per annum is?

Solution:
Simple interest for 2 years = (5680 - 5200) Tk.
= Tk. 480
∴ Simple Interest for 2 years =  Tk. 480
∴ Simple Interest for 5 years =  Tk. (480 × 5/2)
= Tk. 1200
∴ Principal = 5200 - 1200 = Tk. 4000.

We know, 
I = Pnr
⇒ r = I/Pn
 ⇒ r = (1200 × 100)/(4000 × 5)
∴ r = 6%

In how many ways can 10 examination papers be arranged so that the best and the worst papers never come together?
  1. 9!8
  2. 8!9
  3. 7!8
  4. 8!7
ব্যাখ্যা
Number of ways in which 10 paper can arranged is 10! Ways.
The best and the worst papers come together, we get 2 papers as 1 paper,
So we have only 9 papers.
These 9 papers can be arranged in 9! ways.
2 papers can be arranged themselves in 2! ways.
 The best and the worst paper do not come together, in this case number of arrangement
= 10! - 9! × 2!
= 9!(10 - 2)
= 8 × 9!

Question: The average age of all the students of a class in 18 years. The average age of the boys of the class is 20 years and that of the girls is 15 years. If the number of girls in the class is 20, then find the number of boys in the class.

Solution:
Let,
the number of boys in the class be x.
Then, 18 × (x + 20) = 20x + (15 × 20)
⇒ 18x + 360 = 20x + 300
⇒ 20x + 300 = 18x + 360
⇒ 20x -18x = 360 -300
⇒ 2x = 60
⇒ x = 30

∴ The number of boys in the class is 30.

  1. 10%
  2. 20%
  3. 30%
  4. 40%
ব্যাখ্যা

Question: A mixture contains milk and water in the ratio 7 : 3 cost Tk. 500. Then 2 litters of water were added. What is the profit percentage?

Solution:
Let
Milk = 7 liters
Water = 3 liters
Original mixture quantity = 10 liters

Cost of original mixture = 500 Taka
Cost per liter = 500 / 10 = 50 Taka

Water added = 2 liters
New total water = 3 + 2 = 5 liters
Milk remains = 7 liters
Total mixture = 7 + 5 = 12 liters

Total Selling Price = 12 × 50 = 600 Taka

Profit = SP - CP = 600 - 500 = 100
Profit % = (100/500) ​× 100 = 20%

∴ Profit percent = 20%
