ব্যাখ্যা
Question: An train runs twice as fast as a bus which covers 60 kilometers in 80 minutes. What distance will the train cover in 1 hour?

Solution:
Time taken to cover 60 km by bus in 80 min = 80/60 = 4/3 hour

∴ speed of bus = 60 × (3/4) = 45 kmph

Speed of train = 2 × 45 = 90 kmph

So, distance covered by train in 1 hour = 90 km

If each side of the square is increased by 50%, what will be the ratio between the new area and the original area of the square?
  1. 5 : 4
  2. 9 : 4
  3. 4 : 5
  4. 4 : 9
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: If each side of the square is increased by 50%, what will be the ratio between the new area and the original area of the square?

Solution:
Let,
The side of original square is x
∴ The area of original square is x2

The side of new square is x + 50% of x = x + x/2 = 3x/2
∴ The area of new square is (9x2)/4

∴ The ratio between the new area and the original area of the square = (9x2)/4 : x2
= 9/4 : 1
= 9 : 4

  2. 40
  3. 50
  4. 60
ব্যাখ্যা

Question: The number of multiples of 4 between 10 and 250 is:

Solution:
10 এবং 250 এর মধ্যে 4-এর প্রথম গুণিতক হলো 12 (যেহেতু 12 > 10)
10 এবং 250 এর মধ্যে 4-এর শেষ গুণিতক হলো 248 (যেহেতু 248 < 250)

এখন, এটি একটি সমান্তর ধারা, যার প্রথম পদ (a) = 12, শেষ পদ (p) = 248 এবং সাধারণ অন্তর (d) = 4।

আমরা জানি,
পদসংখ্যা (n) = {(শেষ পদ - প্রথম পদ)/সাধারণ অন্তর} + 1
= {(248 - 12)/4} + 1
= {236 / 4} + 1
= 59 + 1
∴ n = 60

Question: The daily rate for a hotel room that sleeps 4 people is Tk. 350 each for first two person and X taka for each additional person. If 4 people take the room for one day and each pays Tk 250 for the room, then what is the value of X?
(একটি হোটেল রুমে সর্বোচ্চ চারজন থাকতে পারে। প্রথম দুইজনের জন্য প্রতিদিনের ভাড়া জন প্রতি ৩৫০ টাকা এবং পরবর্তী প্রত্যেক অতিরিক্ত ব্যক্তির জন্য ভাড়া X টাকা। যদি চারজন ব্যক্তি ঐ রুমটি একদিনের জন্য ভাড়া নেয় এবং প্রত্যেকেই ২৫০ টাকা করে প্রদান করে, তবে X-এর মান নির্ণয় করুন।)

Solution:
একজনের দৈনিক ভাড়া = ৩৫০ টাকা
দুইজনের জন্য = ৭০০ টাকা
প্রতি অতিরিক্ত ব্যক্তির জন্য দৈনিক ভাড়া = X টাকা

৪ জনের জন্য মোট খরচ = ৭০০ + ২X

যদি ৪ জন একদিনের জন্য রুম নেয় এবং প্রত্যেকে ২৫০ টাকা করে দেয়
তাহলে মোট খরচ = ২৫০ × ৪ = ১০০০ টাকা

প্রশ্ন অনুযায়ী,
৭০০ + ২X = ১০০০
⇒ ২X = ১০০০ - ৭০০
⇒ ২X = ৩০০
∴ X = ১৫০

A person travels from one place to another at 30 km/hr and returns at 120 km/hr. If the total time taken is 5 hours, then find the Distance.
  1. 100 km
  2. 150 km
  3. 140 km
  4. 120 km
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: A person travels from one place to another at 30 km/hr and returns at 120 km/hr. If the total time taken is 5 hours, then find the Distance.

Solution:
Here the Distance is constant, so the Time taken will be inversely proportional to the Speed.
Ratio of Speed is given as 30 : 120 = 1 : 4

So the ratio of Time taken will be 4 : 1. 
Total Time taken = 5 hours;
Time taken while going is 4 hours and returning is 1 hour. 

Hence, Distance = 30 ×  4 = 120 km

ব্যাখ্যা
Question: A man bought some eggs of which 10% are rotten. He gives 80% of the remainder to his neighbors. Now he is left out with 36 eggs. Then he ate two eggs. How many eggs did he buy?

Solution:
let, the man bought  x eggs
10% are rotten

so eggs remained = x - x × 10%
= x - x/10
= 9x/10

80% of 9x/10
= (9x/10) × (80/100)
= 18x/25

he is left with = (9x/10) - (18x/25)
= (45x - 36x)/50
= 9x/50

So, (9x/50) = 36
⇒ 9x = 36 × 50
⇒ x = (36 × 50)/9
= 200

∴ He bought 200 eggs

ব্যাখ্যা

Question: A buys a product for Tk. 500 and sells it to B at a profit of 25%. B then sells it to C at a profit of 20%. How much does C pay to B?

সমাধান:
A এর 25% লাভে বিক্রয়মূল্য = 500 + 500 এর 25%
= 500 + (500 × 25 / 100)
= 500 + 125
= 625

A এর বিক্রয়মূল্য = B এর ক্রয়মূল্য

B এর 20% লাভে বিক্রয়মূল্য = 625 + 625 এর 20%
= 625 + (625 × 20 / 100)
= 625 + 125
= 750

সুতরাং, B এর বিক্রয়মূল্য = C এর ক্রয়মূল্য = Tk. 750

ব্যাখ্যা
Question: In a village of 100 households, 75 have at least one DVD player, 80 have at least one cell phone, and 55 have at least one MP3 player. If x and y are respectively the greatest and lowest possible number of households that have all three of these devices, x - y is:

Solution:
The obvious maximum that have all 3 is 55, because you are limited by the smallest number.
The minimum is simply the sum of the max of each people who dont have the product, so:
100 - 80 = 20 don't have Cell
100 - 75 = 25 don't have DVD
and 100 - 55 = 45 don't have MP3

So a total of 20 + 25 + 45 = 90 combined who might not have some combination of the 3 products.
So subtract that from 100, to give you the minimum of the people who could have all 3 and you get 100 - 90 = 10.
55 - 10 = 45

Question: A train travels 720 km at a uniform speed. If the speed had been 5 km/hr more, it would have taken 2 hour less for the same journey. Find the speed of the train.

Solution:
Given distance = 720 km.
Let,
The speed of the train be x km/hr.
Speed when increased by 5 km/hr = (x + 5) km/hr
ATQ,
(720/x) - {720/(x + 5)} = 2
⇒ (360/x) - {360/(x + 5)} = 1 [Divided by 2]
⇒ [360x + 1800 - 360x]/{x(x + 5)} =1
⇒ 1800/(x2 + 5x) = 1
⇒ x2 + 5x = 1800
⇒ x2 + 5x - 1800 = 0
⇒ x2 + 45x - 40x - 1800 = 0
⇒ x(x + 45) - 40(x + 45) = 0
⇒ (x - 40)(x + 45) = 0
x = 40, - 45
Here we ignore the negative  value.

∴ The speed of the train is 40 km/hr.

The marked price of a chair was Tk. 12,800/-. The shopkeeper was offering it for a discount of 20% but on further bargaining agreed to offer a successive discount and finally sold the chair for Tk 9,216/- What was the second discount offered by him?
  1. ক) 5%
  2. খ) 10%
  3. গ) 20%
  4. ঘ) 25%
ব্যাখ্যা

Price after 1stdiscount of 20% = (100-20)%
= 80% of Marked Price
∴ Price = (80/100) × 12800
= Tk. 10240

SP = (100 - Discount) % of Price

∴ 9216 = (100 - Discount) % x 10240
⇒ (100 - Discount)/100 = 9216/10240
⇒ 100 - Discount = (9216 × 100)/10240
⇒ 100 - Discount = 90
⇒ Discount = 100 - 90 = 10%

10% is the percent of 2nddiscount offered.

Solution:
Let C = x.
Then, B = x + 5000
and A = x + 5000 + 7000
= x + 12000

So,
x + x + 5000 + x + 12000 = 80000
⇒ 3x + 17000 = 80000
⇒ 3x = 80000 - 17000
⇒ 3x = 63000
⇒ x = 21000
∴ x = 21000

so, C = 21000, B = 21000 + 5000 = 26000, A = 21000 + 12000 = 33000

A : B : C = 33000 : 26000 : 21000
= 33 : 26 : 21

∴ Total ratio = 33 + 26 + 21 = 80

So A's Share

Question: In the xy-plane, a triangle has vertices (0, 0), (k, 0) and (k, - 5k), where k > 0. If the area of the region enclosed by the triangle is 40, what is the value of k?

Solution:

প্রদত্ত ত্রিভুজটির শীর্ষবিন্দুগুলো হলো (0, 0), (k, 0) এবং (k, - 5k)।

যেহেতু B এবং C বিন্দুর x-স্থানাঙ্ক একই (k), তাই BC রেখাটি y-অক্ষের সমান্তরাল।
যেহেতু A এবং B বিন্দুর y-স্থানাঙ্ক একই (0), তাই AB রেখাটি x-অক্ষের সমান্তরাল।
সুতরাং, ত্রিভুজটি B বিন্দুতে একটি সমকোণী ত্রিভুজ।

দুটি বিন্দুর স্থানাঙ্ক (x1, y1) এবং (x2, y2) হলে তাদের মধ্যবর্তী দূরত্ব = √{(x2 - x1)2 + (y2 - y1)2}

∴ ভূমি = (0, 0) এবং (k, 0) বিন্দুর মধ্যবর্তী দূরত্ব = k (যেহেতু k > 0)।
∴ উচ্চতা = (k, 0) এবং (k, - 5k) বিন্দুর মধ্যবর্তী দূরত্ব = 5k (যেহেতু k > 0)।

ত্রিভুজের ক্ষেত্রফল = (1/2) × ভূমি × উচ্চতা

প্রশ্নমতে, 
(1/2) × k × 5k = 40
⇒ (5/2)k= 40
⇒ 5k2 = 80
⇒ k2 = 80/5
⇒ k2 = 16
⇒ k = √16
⇒ k = ±4

যেহেতু প্রশ্নে দেওয়া আছে k > 0, তাই k এর মান হবে 4।
∴ k এর মান 4।

Question: A two-digit number becomes 54 more than the original number when its digits are reversed. What is the difference between the digits of the number?

Solution:
ধরি,
সংখ্যাটির একক স্থানীয় অঙ্ক = x
দশক স্থানীয় অঙ্ক = y
∴ সংখ্যাটি = x + 10y 
এবং অঙ্কদ্বয় স্থান পরিবর্তন করলে সংখ্যাটি = 10x + y

সংখ্যাটির অঙ্কদ্বয়ের পার্থক্য = x - y

প্রশ্নমতে,
10x + y = x + 10y + 54
⇒ 10x - x + y - 10y = 54
⇒ 9x - 9y = 54
⇒ 9(x - y) = 54
⇒ x - y = 54/9
⇒ x - y = 6

Question: A man completes a certain journey by a car. If he covered 30% of the distance at the speed of 20kmph. 60% of the distance at 40km/h and the remaining of the distance at 10 kmph, his average speed is:

Solution:
Suppose, total distance = 100 km

He covered 30% of the distance at the speed of 20kmph
His time taken = 30/20 hours

He covered 60% of the distance at 40km/h
His time taken = 60/40 hours

He covered the remaining of the distance at 10 kmph
The remaining of the distance = 100% - (30 + 60)% = 10%
His time taken = 10/10 hour

∴ Average speed = total distance/time
= 100/(30/20 + 60/40 + 10/10)
= 25 km/h

Question: Two dice are thrown simultaneously. What is the probability of getting two numbers whose product is even?

Solution:
In a simultaneous throw of two dice,
we have n(S) = (6 × 6) = 36

Now, we find the odd product,
E = {(1, 1), (1, 3), (1, 5), (3, 1), (3, 3), (3, 5), (5, 1), (5, 3), (5 ,5)}

∴ n(E) = 9

∴ P(odd product)= 9/36 = 1/4

​​Now, we find the even product,
​probability(product even) = 1 - (1/4) = 3/4

ব্যাখ্যা

Assume first child (the youngest) get = Tk. x
According to the question ;
each son having Tk. 30 more than the younger one

Second child will get = Tk. x + 30
Third child will get = Tk. x + 30 + 30 = x + 60
Fourth child will get = Tk. x + 30 + 30 + 30 = x + 90
Fifth child will get = Tk. x + 30 + 30 + 30 + 30 = x + 120

Total amount they got = Tk. 2000

x + (x+30) + (x+60) + (x+90) + (x+120) = 2000
5x + 300 = 2000
5x = 1700
x = Tk. 340
So the youngest child will get Tk. 340.

Question: The simple interest on a sum of money in 5 years at 12% per annum is Tk. 400 less than the simple interest accrued on the same sum in 7 years at 10% per annum. Find the sum.

Solution:
Let the sum be P.
SI in 5 years at 12% per annum = P × 12 × (5/100) = 0.6 P
SI in 7 years at 10% per annum = P × 10 × (7/100) = 0.7 P

Now, according to the question,
0.7 P - 0.6 P = 400
⇒ 0.1 P = 400
⇒ P = 4000
Thus, the required sum is Tk. 4000

Quesation: A pipe can fill a cistern in 45 minutes while another pipe can empty it in 1 hour 30 minutes. If both pipes are opened at 8 : 15 A.M., at what time will the cistern be full?

Solution:
1 মিনিটে পূর্ণ হয় = 1/45 অংশ
আবার,
1 মিনিটে খালি হয় = 1/(60 + 30) = 1/90 অংশ

∴ 1 মিনিটে পূর্ণ হয় = {(1/45) - (1/90)} = (2 - 1)/90 = 1/90 অংশ

∴ 1/90 অংশ পূর্ণ হয় = 1 মিনিটে
1 বা সম্পূর্ণ অংশ পূর্ণ হয় = 1/(1/90) = 90 মিনিটে

সুতরাং ট্যাংকটি পূর্ণ হবে = 8 : 15 A. M + 90 মিনিটে = 9 : 45 A. M

Question: A circuit has a resistor of 80Ω and a current of 2A is flowing through it. What is the voltage across the resistor?

Solution:
To find the voltage across the resistor, I'll use Ohm's Law:
V = I × R
Where:

V is the voltage (in volts)
I is the current (in amperes)
R is the resistance (in ohms)

Given:

Resistance (R) = 80Ω
Current (I) = 2A

Substituting these values:
V = 2A × 80Ω
V = 160V
Therefore, the voltage across the 80Ω resistor is 160 volts.

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 year = Tk. 720 ------------- (1)
Principal + Simple interest for 7 year = Tk. 1020 ------------ (2)

Subtracting equation (1) from (2)
Principal + Simple interest for 7 year = Tk. 1020 
Principal + Simple interest for 2 year = Tk. 720
∴ Simple interest for 5 years = Tk. 300
⇒ Simple interest for 1 years = Tk. 300/5
⇒ Simple interest for 1 years = 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: Dhaka and Mymensingh apart from each other 760 km. A train starts from Dhaka at 9 am and travels towards Mymensingh at speed 60 km/hr. Another train starts from Mymensingh at 10 am and travels towards Dhaka at speed 80 km/hr. At what time both will meet?

Solution: 
Total distance between D and M = 760 km. 
A travels 1 hour before B so it travels = 60 × 1 = 60 km 
Now the remaining distance D and M= 760 - 60 = 700 km 
Relative speed = 60 + 80 = 140 km/hr 

Time = 700/140 
= 5 hour. 

So, the time when they meet = 10 am + 5 hour = 3 pm

Question:  A boy rides his bicycle 10 km at an average speed of 12 km/hr. and again travels 12km at an average speed of 10km/hr. His average speed of for the entire trip is approximately -

Solution: 
Total Distance = 10 + 12 = 22 km
Total time = (10/12) + (12/10)
= (5/6) + (6/5)
= (25 + 36)/30
= 61/30 hours

Average speed = 22/(61/30) = 660/61 = 10.8 km/hour

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

Solution: 

Let AB be the observer and CD tower
Draw BE perpendicular to CD

Then CE = AB = 1.6 m
And BE = AC =  20√3 m

Then right angle triangle DEB
∴ tan30° = DE/BE
⇒ 1/√3 = DE/20√3
⇒ DE = 20√3m

Then CD = CE + DE = 1.6 + 20 = 21.6 m

Question: If 3√3 × 33 ÷ 31/3 = 3a/6 then the value of a is-

Solution:
Given that,
⇒ 3√3 × 33 ÷ 31/3 = 3a/6
⇒ 31 × 31/2 × 33  ÷ 31/3 = 3a/6
⇒ 3{1 + (1/2) + 3 - (1/3)} = 3a/6
⇒ {1+ (1/2) + 3 - (1/3)} = a/6
⇒ (6 + 3 +  18 - 2 )/6 = a/6
⇒ 25/6 = a/6
∴ a = 25

Question: What is the greatest number that will divide 96, 132, and 150 leaving remainders 6, 9, and 12 respectively? 

Solution:
We have to subtract the reminder first: 
96 - 6 = 90
132 - 9 = 123
150 - 12 = 138

Using prime factorization:
For 123:
123 = 3 × 41

For 90:
90 = 2 × 32 × 5

For 138:
138 = 2 × 3 × 23

Digit (123, 90, 138) have at least 3 in common. 

∴ The greatest number is 3

A is two years older than B who is twice as old as C. If the total of the ages of A, B and C be 27, the how old is B?
  1. 8 years
  2. 9 years
  3. 10 years
  4. 11 years
  5. 14 years
ব্যাখ্যা
Let C's age be x years.
Then, B's age = 2x years.
A's age = (2x + 2) years. 
∴ (2x + 2) + 2x + x = 27
⇒ 5x = 25
⇒ x = 5.
Hence, B's age = 2x = 10 years.
