If 15 men can reap the crops of a field in 28 days, in how many days will 5 men reap it?
  1. 50 days
  2. 60 days
  3. 84 days
  4. 9.333 days
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: If 15 men can reap the crops of a field in 28 days, in how many days will 5 men reap it?

Solution:
Let 5 men can reap a field in x days
So, put the same quantities on the same side.
Men: Days
Now, Men and Days are inversely proportional to each other. If we increase the number of men fewer days will be required to complete the work.
Inversely proportional means = 15 = 1/28, 5 = 1/x
so, 5/15 = 28/x
⇒ 5x = 28 × 15
∴ x = 84

Hence, 5 men can reap a field in 84 days.

A shopkeeper sold an article at a loss of 20%. If he had sold it for Tk. 150 more, he would have made a profit of 10%. The cost price of the article is.
  1. Tk. 480
  2. Tk. 600
  3. Tk. 750
  4. Tk. 500
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: A shopkeeper sold an article at a loss of 20%. If he had sold it for Tk. 150 more, he would have made a profit of 10%. The cost price of the article is.

Solution:
Given that,
Loss = 20%
If sold for Tk. 150 more, profit = 10%

Now, Let cost price = Tk. x
Then,
Selling price at 20% loss = x - x of 20% =  0.80x
Selling price at 10% profit = x + x of 10% = 1.10x

According to the question,
⇒ 1.10x - 0.80x = 150
⇒ 0.30x = 150
⇒ x = 150/0.30
∴ x = 500

So, the cost price of the article is Tk. 500.

  3. গ) Both i and ii
  4. ঘ) Either i or ii
  5. ঙ) Cannot be determined
ব্যাখ্যা
What is the value of 'm'?
i) The number m yields a remainder p when divided by 14 and a remainder q when divided by 7
ii) p - q = 7

প্রশ্নে বলা হচ্ছে, m কে 14 দ্বারা ভাগ করলে ভাগশেষ থাকে p এবং 7 দ্বারা ভাগ করলে ভাগশেষ থাকে q। এখন p = q + 7 হলে m এর মান নিচের কোনটি হতে পারে?

এখানে, m এর মান বের করতে হলে শুধু p = 7 + q তথ্য দ্বারা বের করা যাবে না।
এক্ষেত্রে m = 53 হলে 53/14 = 3 অর্থাৎ ভাগশেষ থাকে 11, আবার 7 দ্বারা ভাগ করলে ভাগশেষ থাকে 4.
অর্থাৎ 4 + 7 = 11 যা p এর মান।
এভাবে m এর মান বের করতে (i) এবং (ii) উভয়ই লাগবে।

তাই সঠিক উত্তর: অপশন (গ)

At what rate of compound interest per annum will a sum of Tk. 2500 become Tk. 3600 in 2 years?
  1. 15%
  2. 20%
  3. 30%
  4. 12%
ব্যাখ্যা

প্রশ্ন: At what rate of compound interest per annum will a sum of Tk. 2500 become Tk. 3600 in 2 years?

সমাধান:
দেওয়া আছে,
মূলধন, P = 2500 টাকা
চক্রবৃদ্ধি আসল, C = 3600 টাকা
সময়, n = 2 বছর
মুনাফার হার = r ?

আমরা জানি,
চক্রবৃদ্ধি আসল, C = P(1 + r/100)n
⇒ 3600 = 2500(1 + r/100)2
⇒ (1 + r/100)2 = 3600/2500
⇒ (1 + r/100)2 = 36/25
⇒ 1 + r/100 = 6/5
⇒ r/100 = (6/5) - 1
⇒ r/100 = 1/5
⇒ r = (1 × 100) / 5
⇒ r = 20

∴ বার্ষিক চক্রবৃদ্ধি সুদের হার = 20%

Out of total expenditure for a month, a man spends 8% on petrol, 15% on his son's education and 52% on his family and the remaining Tk. 2500 for savings. What is the total expenditure?
  1. Tk.15000
  2. Tk.18000
  3. Tk.10000
  4. Tk.20000
ব্যাখ্যা

Let the total expenditure = Tk.X
He spends for petrol = 8X/100
For his son's education = 15X/100
For his family = 52X/100
Therefore the remaining amount for savings = Tk. 2500 = X - (8X/100 + 15X/100 + 52X/100)
⇒ X - (8X/100 + 15X/100 + 52X/100) = Tk. 2500
⇒ X - 75X/100 = Tk. 2500
⇒ 25X/100 = Tk. 2500
⇒ 25X = Tk. 2500 × 100
⇒ X = (Tk. 2500 × 100)/25
⇒ X = Tk. 10000
Hence, the total expenditure = Tk. 10000.

In triangle ABC, sides AB = AC, and angle ∠C = 35∘. Find the measure of angle ∠A.
  1. 110°
  2. 90°
  3. 70°
  4. 120°
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: In triangle ABC, sides AB = AC, and angle ∠C = 35. Find the measure of angle ∠A.

Solution:
Since AB = AC, triangle ABC is isosceles with the equal sides being AB and AC. In an isosceles triangle, the angles opposite the equal sides are equal. Therefore ∠B =∠C
Given that ∠C = 35, it follows that, ∠B = 35
The sum of the interior angles in any triangle is 180. Therefore,
⇒ ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180
⇒ ∠A + 35 + 35 = 180
⇒ ∠A = (180 - 70)°
∴ ∠A = 110°

A student goes  3 km/h and reaches 6 min late
and goes 4 km/h he is 12 min early
Total time = (12 + 6) min = 18 min 

Let the distance between school and home be x km

ATQ,
(x/3) - (x/4) = 18/60
⇒ (4x - 3x)/12 = 3/10
⇒ x/12 = 3/10
⇒ x = (3 × 12)/10
⇒ x = 18/5
∴ x = 3.6 

∴ The distance of the school is 3.6 km

Questoin: A sum was put at simple interest at a certain rate for 3 years. Had it been put at 1% higher rate, it would have fetched 510 taka more. The sum is -

Solution:
Let the sum be Tk x and the original rate be R%
Then, ((x × (R +1) × 3)/100) - {(x × R × 3)/100} = 510
⇒ 3Rx + 3x - 3Rx = 51000
⇒ 3x = 51000
⇒ x = 17000

Question: A driving wheel makes 250 revolutions per minute to keep a speed of 66 km per hour. What is the diameter of the driving wheel?

Solution:
Total distance of one hour = 66 km = 66 × 1000 m = 66000 × 100 cm = 6600000 cm.
∴ Distance of 1 minute = 6600000/60 cm
= 110000 cm

∴ Distance for 1 revolution = 110000/250 cm
= 440 cm

Let,
The radius of the wheel = r cm
∴ The diameter of the wheel, d = 2r cm

Now,
2πr = 440
⇒ 2r = 440/π
⇒ d = 440 × (7/22)
∴ d = 140

∴ The length of the diameter of the driving wheel is 140 cm

Question: 125 small sphere balls are formed from a big ball with radius 25cm. What will be the surface area of a small ball?

Solution: 
converting a big sphere ball to 125 small balls,
the volume will be the same for both case.
let, 
small ball radius = r
given, big ball radius, R = 25cm

∴ (4/3)πR3 = 125 × (4/3)πr3
⇒ R3 = 125 × r3
⇒ R = 5 × r
⇒ r = 25/5
r = 5cm

∴ total surface area of a small ball is 
a = 4πr2
= 4 × 3.1416 × (5)2
= 314.16 cm2

Question: A, B, and C invested Tk 50,000 for a business. A invested Tk 4000 more than B and B Tk 5000 more than C. Out of a total profit of Tk 35,000, A receives - 

Solution:
Let C = x.
Then, B = x + 5000
and A = x + 5000 + 4000 = x + 9000

So, x + x + 5000 + x + 9000 = 50000
⇒ 3x = 36000
⇒ x = 12000

A : B : C = 21000 : 17000 : 12000 = 21 : 17 : 12

So A's Share = 35000 × (21/50) = Tk 14700

Question: A vessel contains 140 litres of milk and water in the ratio of 4 : 3. If 20 litres of milk and 30 litres of water are added to the mixture, the difference between milk and water in the final mixture is Y. Find the value of 7Y?

Solution:
Given,
Total mixture = 140 litres
Ratio of milk and water = 4 : 3
Sum of the ratios = 4 + 3 = 7

Initially,
Quantity of milk = 140 × (4/7) = 80 litres
Quantity of water = 140 × (3/7) = 60 litres

After adding 20 litres of milk and 30 litres of water:
New quantity of milk = 80 + 20 = 100 litres
New quantity of water = 60 + 30 = 90 litres

According to the question, the difference between milk and water is Y:
∴ Y = |100 - 90| = 10 litres

∴ The value of 7Y = 7 × 10 = 70

Question: In a group of people, 35 speak English, 25 speak French, and 12 speak both English and French. How many people are in the group if everyone speaks at least one of these two languages?

Solution:
দেওয়া আছে,
ইংরেজি বলে, n(E) = 35 জন
ফরাসি বলে, n(F) = 25 জন
উভয় ভাষা বলে, n(E ∩ F) = 12 জন

যেহেতু সবাই অন্তত একটি ভাষা বলে, তাই মোট ব্যক্তির সংখ্যা হবে n(E ∪ F)।

আমরা জানি,
n(E ∪ F) = n(E) + n(F) - n(E ∩ F)
⇒ n(E ∪ F) = 35 + 25 - 12
⇒ n(E ∪ F) = 60 - 12
⇒ n(E ∪ F) = 48

∴ ঐ গ্রুপে মোট 48 জন ব্যক্তি আছেন।

Question: The ratio between the perimeter and the length of a rectangle is 5 : 2. If the area of the rectangle is 484 sq. cm, what is the length of the rectangle?

Solution: 
Let Length = l
& Breadth = b
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(l + b)

Now,
2(l + b)/l = 5/2
⇒ 4(l + b) = 5l
⇒ l = 4b

Area, l × b = 484
⇒ 4b × b = 484
⇒ b2 = 121 = 112
⇒ b = 11

∴ l = 4 × 11 = 44

So the length of the rectangle is 44 cm.

Question: Two bus tickets from city A to B and three tickets from city A to C cost Tk. 77 but three tickets from city A to B and two tickets from city A to C cost Tk. 73. What are the fares for cities B and C from A?

Solution:
Let,
Tk. x be the fare of city B from city A 
Tk. y be the fare of city C from city A.

Then,
2x + 3y = 77 ........(i)
3x + 2y = 73 ........(ii)

Multiplying (i) by 3 and (ii) by 2 and subtracting, we get:
6x + 9y - 6x - 4y = 231 - 146
⇒ 5y = 85
∴ y = 17

Putting y = 17 in (i), we get:
2x + 51 = 77
⇒ 2x = 77 - 51
⇒ 2x = 26
∴ x = 13.

Question: A mixture contains two liquids 'A' and 'B' are in the ratio 4 : 1. If 10 litres of mixture is withdrawn and replaced with 10 litres of 'B', then the ratio becomes 2 : 3. What was the initial quantity of A?

Solution:
ধরি, মিশ্রণের প্রাথমিক পরিমাণ = 5x লিটার

A এর পরিমাণ = 4x লিটার
B এর পরিমাণ = x লিটার

∴ 10 লিটার মিশ্রণ তুলে নেওয়ার পর,
A এর পরিমাণ = 4x - (4/5) × 10 = 4x - 8 লিটার
B এর পরিমাণ = x - (1/5) × 10 = x - 2 লিটার

আবার,
 B তে 10 লিটার যোগ করার পর,
B এর পরিমাণ = x - 2 + 10 = x + 8 লিটার

∴ প্রদত্ত অনুপাত,
⇒ (4x - 8)/(x + 8) = 2/3
⇒ 12x - 24 = 2x + 16
⇒ 10x = 16 + 24
⇒ x = 40/10
⇒ x = 4

∴ A এর পরিমাণ = 4 × 4 = 16 লিটার

Question: Walking 3/4 of his normal speed, Rafi is 12 minutes late in reaching his office. The usual time taken by him to cover the distance between his home and office-

Solution:
Let s be Rafi's normal speed,  t be his usual time, and t' be his new time.

Since the distance to the office is constant, d = s × t
When Rafi walks at his normal speed his new time is expressed as, d = (3/4)s × t'

Again, since the distance is the same,
st = (3/4)s × t'
⇒ t' = (4/3)t 

ATQ,
t' - t = 12

Question: A can complete the work in 24 days and B in 16 days. They work together for 6 days. How many more days will A take alone to finish the remaining work?

Solution:
A একা কাজটি করতে পারে = 24 দিনে
∴ A এর একদিনের কাজ = 1/24 অংশ
এবং, 
   B একা কাজটি করতে পারে = 16 দিনে

  2. √2/2
  3. √3/2
  4. 1
  5. None
ব্যাখ্যা

Question: If tan(θ - 45°) = 1, then what is the value of sinθ?
 
Solution:
Given that,
tan(θ - 45°) = 1

We know,
tan45° = 1

So,
tan(θ - 45°) = tan45°
⇒ (θ - 45°) = 45°
⇒ θ = 90°

Now,
∴ sinθ = sin90° = 1

A person who spends (200/3)% of his income is able to save Tk.1500 per month. His monthly expenses ( in Tk.) are-
  1. ক) Tk. 2600
  2. খ) Tk. 3200
  3. গ) Tk. 3000
  4. ঘ) Tk. 4500
ব্যাখ্যা
Let 
The monthly income be Tk. x 
Now 
{100 - (200/3)}% of x = 1500
{(300 - 200)/3}% of x = 1500
(100/3) % of x = 1500
(100/3) × (1/100) × x = 1500
x/3 = Tk.1500
x = Tk.4500

His monthly expense = Tk. (4500 - 1500)
                                   = Tk. 3000

  1. 72 Tk.
  2. 144 Tk.
  3. 148 Tk.
  4. 164 Tk.
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: A shopkeeper expects a gain of 22.5% on his cost price. If in a week, his sale was of 784 Tk, what was his profit?

Solution:
Given,
Selling price = 784 Tk.

For a gain of 22.5%,
The cost price can be = 122.5

Cost price = (100/122.5) × 784 Tk.
= (1000/1225) × 784 Tk.
= 640 Tk

Therefore, Profit = 784 - 640 Tk.
= 144 Tk.

There is 45% increase in an amount in 4 years 6 months at simple interest. What will be the compound interest of Tk. 10000 after 4 years at the same rate?
  1. Tk. 4000
  2. Tk. 4641
  3. Tk. 14641
  4. Tk. 14000
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: There is 45% increase in an amount in 4 years 6 months at simple interest. What will be the compound interest of Tk. 10000 after 4 years at the same rate?

Solution: 
Let,
P = Tk. 100.
∴ Simple interest, I = Tk. 45
n = 4 years 6 months = 4.5 years
Rate = r

We know that,
I = Pnr
∴ r = I/(Pn)
= (45 × 100)/(100 × 4.5) %
= 10%

Now,
P = Tk. 10000
n = 4 years
r = 10%

C = P(1 + r)n
= 10000 × (1.1)4 
= 10000 × 1.1 × 1.1 × 1.1 × 1.1 
= 14641

∴ The compound interest = Tk. (14641 - 10000) = Tk. 4641

Question: 7Pr = 210 and 7Cr = 35 then what is the value of r?

​​​​Solution:
​Given that,
7Pr = 210 and 7Cr = 35

​We know that,
nPr​  = r! × nCr
​⇒ 210 = r! × 35
 ​⇒ ​r! = 210/35
​ ​⇒ r! = 6
 ​⇒ ​r! = 3!
∴ ​r = 3

If dividing P(x) = 2x3 + 5x2 + ax - 7 by (x - 2) results in the remainder 15, then find the value of a.
  1. - 7
  2. 20
  3. - 2/9
  4. - 9
ব্যাখ্যা

Question: If dividing P(x) = 2x3 + 5x2 + ax - 7 by (x - 2) results in the remainder 15, then find the value of a.

Solution:
Dividing P(x) by (x - 2), we get the remainder P(2).

∴ P(2) = 2(2)3 + 5(2)2 + a(2) - 7
= 2(8) + 5(4) + 2a - 7
= 16 + 20 + 2a - 7
= 29 + 2a

According to the question,
29 + 2a = 15
⇒ 2a = 15 - 29
⇒ 2a = -14
∴ a = - 7

Question: A train 110 m long is running at the speed of 60 km/hr. In what time will it pass a man who is running at the speed of 6 km/hr in the opposite direction in which the train is moving?

Solution: 
Relative speed = 60 km/hr + 6 km/hr
= 66 km/hr
= 66 ×1000/3600 m/sec 
= 66 × 5/18 m/sec
= 55/3 m/sec

Time needed = 110 /55/3 sec
= 110 × 3/55 sec 
= 6 sec
