The word PUZZLE has 6 different letters, but ATQ, the vowels should always come together.
Now, let the vowels UE as a single entity.
Therefore, the number of letters is PZZL = 4, and UE = 1
Since the total number of letters = 4+1 = 5

So the arrangement would be in 5P5 = 5!/(5 - 5)!
= 5!/0!
= 5!
= 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1
= 120 ways

Now, the vowels AE can arrange in 2 different ways, i.e., 2P2 = 2! = 2 × 1 = 2 ways
Hence, the new words that can be formed = 120 × 2 = 240.

Question: Find the area of a triangle whose sides are 12 cm, 5 cm and 13 cm-

Solution:
ত্রিভুজের তিন বাহু যথাক্রমে,
a = 12 cm, b = 5 cm, c=13 cm
অর্ধপরিধি, S = (a + b + c)/2
= (12 + 5 + 13​)/2
= 30/2 = 15 cm

আমরা জানি,
ত্রিভুজের ক্ষেত্রফল = √{s(s - a)(s - b)(s - c)​}
= √{15(15 - 12)(15 - 5)(15 - 13)}
= √(15 × 3 × 10 × 2)​
= √900
= 30 cm2

অতএব, ত্রিভুজের ক্ষেত্রফল 30 cm2.

Question: 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 original rate be R%

ATQ,
((x × (R +1) × 3)/100) - {(x × R × 3)/100} = 510
⇒ 3Rx + 3x - 3Rx = 51000
⇒ 3x = 51000
⇒ x = 17000

Hence, sum = Tk. 17,000

Question: The area of a circle is increased by 22 sq. cm if its radius is increased by 1 cm. The original radius of the circle is-

Solution:
Let,
the original radius of the circle = r cm

ATQ,
π(r + 1)2 - πr2 = 22
⇒ π[(r + 1)2 - r2] = 22
⇒ r2 + 2r + 1 - r2 = 22/π
⇒ 2r + 1 = 22/(22/7)
⇒ 2r + 1 = 7
⇒ 2r = 7 - 1
⇒ 2r = 6
∴ r = 3

∴ the original radius of the circle = 3 cm

Question: Taps X and Y can fill a tank in 30 and 40 minutes respectively. Tap Z can empty the filled tank in 60 minutes. If all the three taps are kept open for one minute each, how much time will the taps take to fill the tank?

Solution:
Given taps X and Y can fill the tank in 30 and 40 minutes respectively. Therefore,
part filled by tap X in 1 minute = 1/30
part filled by tap Y in 1 minute = 1/40

Tap Z can empty the tank in 60 minutes. Therefore,
part emptied by tap Z in 1 minute = 1/60

Net part filled by Pipes X,Y,Z together in 1 minute = [1/30  + 1/40 - 1/60]
= 5/120
= 1/24

∴ The tank can be filled in 24 minutes.

Question: A total profit of Tk. 5400 is to be distributed amongst A, B and C such that A : B = 5 : 4 and B : C = 8 : 9. The share of B in the profit is:
 
Solution:
A Total Profit = Tk. 5400

Profit ratio,
A : B = 5 : 4
B : C = 8 : 9
As B is common in both ratio, we make B equal in both ratio by multiplying One B in another.
A : B = (5 × 8) : (4 × 8) = 40 : 32
B : C = (8 × 4) : (9 × 4) = 32 : 36

So, ratio of A : B : C = 40 : 32 : 36 = 10 : 8 : 9

Now,
B shares in profit = (5400 × 8)/27
= Tk. 1600

Question: The cost of a milk and water mixture in a 7:3 ratio is Tk. 500. Adding 2 liters of water increases profit. Find 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%

Number of liters of water in 125 liters of the mixture = 20% of 150 = 1/5 of 150 = 30 liters
Let us assume that other ‘P’ liters of water are added to the mixture to make water 25% of the new mixture.
So, the total amount of water becomes (30 + P) and
the total volume of the mixture becomes (150 + P)
Thus,
(30 + P) = 25% of (150 + P)
Solving, we get P = 10 liters

প্রশ্ন: In a transaction, the profit percentage is 80% of the cost. If the cost further increases by 20% but the selling price remains the same, how much is the decrease in profit percentage?

সমাধান: 
Let us assume CP = Tk. 100.
Then Profit = Tk. 80 and selling price = Tk. 180

The cost increases by 20% 
∴  New CP = Tk. 120,
SP = Tk. 180.

∴ Profit = 180 - 120 = Tk. 60
Profit % = (60/120) × 100% = 50%.

Therefore, Profit decreases by (80 - 50)% =  30%.

Let x be the amount of water to be added.
New total amount of water = 4 + x
Total amount of chemical = 4
∴ New total = 4 + 4 + x = 8 + x
Final ratio required (for water) = 5/(5 + 3) = 5/8
Thus, (4 + x)/(8 + x) = 5/8
Or, 32 + 8x = 40 + 5x
Or, 3x = 8
Or, x = 8/3

Question: The difference between a number and its two-fifth is 510. What is the ten percent of that number?

Solution:
Let,
the number will be x.

ATQ,
x - (2x/5) = 510
⇒ (5x - 2x)/5 = 510
⇒ 3x/5 = 510
⇒ 3x = 510 × 5
⇒ x = 2550/3
x = 850

∴ The number of 10% = 850 × (10/100) = 85

ব্যাখ্যা

A completes the work in 12 days at 8 hour per day = 12 x 8 = 96 hours
In 1 hour, A completes (1/96) amount of work

B completes the work in 10 days (2 days less than A) working 10 hours every day (i.e. 2 hours more than A per day) = 10 x 10 = 100 hours
In 1 hour, B completes (1/100) amount of work

Working together, in 1 hour A and B complete (1/96) + (1/100) = (49/2400) amount of work
So they complete the entire work in (2400/49) hours

Since they work for 8 hours per day, they need = (2400/49) × (1/8) = 300/49 days.

Question: Three-fourths of a number is equal to 60% of another number and the difference between these two number is 20. What is the sum of these two numbers? 

Solution: 
Let the numbers be x and x + 20

Then, 
3x/4 = 60% of (x + 20)
⇒ 3x/4 = 60(x + 20)/100
⇒ 3x/4 = 3(x + 20)/5
⇒ x/4 = (x + 20)/5
⇒ 5x = 4x + 80
⇒ 5x - 4x = 80 
⇒ x = 80 

The sum of these two numbers = x + x + 20 
= 2x + 20
= 2 × 80 + 20

বর্তমানে মিনার বয়স = x বছর
∴ রিনার বয়স = 4x বছর

৬ বছর পূর্বে,
মিনার বয়স (x - 6) বছর.
রিনার বয়স (4x - 6) বছর.

ATC,
4x - 6 = 10(x - 6)
⇒ 4x - 6 = 10x - 60
⇒ 6x = 54
∴ x = 9

∴ মিনার বর্তমান বয়স = 9 বছর
রিনার বর্তমান বয়স = 4 × 9 = 36 বছর

5 বছর পরে,
মিনার বয়স = 9 + 5 = 14 বছর
রিনার বয়স = 36 + 5 = 41 বছর

∴5 বছর পরে উভয়ের বয়সের যোগফল = 14 + 41 = 55 বছর

Question: Suman buys 160 chocolates for Tk. 480. She wanted to earn 30% profit by selling them. But Rakesh visited her and she gave him 25% of those chocolates at the cost price itself. But even after doing this, she earned a profit of 30% as decided. For how much did she sell each chocolate?

Solution:
Total chocolates = 160
Cost price (CP) of all chocolates = Tk. 480
CP per chocolate = 480/160 = Tk. 3
Desired profit = 30%
Given to Rakesh = 25% of chocolates at CP
25% of 160 = 40 chocolates
Remaining chocolates = 160 - 40 = 120 chocolates

CP for 40 chocolates = 40 × Tk. 3 = Tk. 120
CP for 120 chocolates = 120 × Tk. 3 = Tk. 360

To achieve 30% profit overall:
Let selling price (SP) per chocolate = x
Total revenue = (40 × 3) + (120 × x)
Total revenue = 120 + 120x

For 30% profit:
Total revenue = CP + 30% of CP
120 + 120x = 480 + (0.3 × 480)
120 + 120x = 480 + 144
120x = 504
x = 4.2
Therefore, Suman sold each remaining chocolate for Tk. 4.2

Question: In an examination 80% candidates passed in English and 85% candidates passed in Mathematics. If 73% candidates passed in both these subjects, then what per cent of candidates failed in both the subjects?

Solution:
Students passed in English = 80%
Students passed in Math's = 85%
Students passed in both subjects = 73%
Then, number of students passed in at least one subject
= (80 + 85) - 73
= 92%.
Thus, students failed in both subjects = 100 - 92 = 8%.

Question: If |x - 3| < 4, then for which values of m and n will m < 3x + 5 < n hold?

Solution:
|x - 3| < 4
⇒ - 4 < x - 3 < 4
⇒ - 4 + 3 < x < 4 + 3
⇒ - 1 < x < 7
⇒ - 1 × 3 < 3x < 7 × 3  ; [Now multiply all parts by 3]
⇒ - 3 < 3x < 21
⇒ - 3 + 5 < 3x + 5 < 21 + 5 ; [Now add 5 to all parts]
⇒ 2 < 3x + 5 < 26

Comparing this with m < 3x + 5 < n, then we get,
m = 2 and n = 26.

Solution:
We know,
sin2θ + cos2θ = 1

Given that,
cos2θ + (1/cosec2θ) + 17 = x
⇒ cos2θ + sin2θ + 17 = x   ; [1/cosecθ = sinθ]
⇒ 1 + 17 = x
⇒ x = 18
⇒ x2 = 182
⇒ x2 = 324

∴ The value of x2 is 324.

Question: A tank can be filled by pipe A in 2 hours and pipe B in 6 hours. At 10 am pipe A was opened. At what time will the tank be filled if pipe B is opened at 11 am?

Solution:
পাইপ A এর কাজের হার = 1/2​ অংশ
পাইপ B এর কাজের হার = 1/6​ অংশ

10  টা থেকে 11 টা পর্যন্ত পাইপ A একা কাজ = (1/2​) × 1 = 1/2

∴ ১১ টা থেকে দুটি পাইপ একসাথে কাজ করলে,
মোট কাজ = (1/2) + (1/6)
= (3 + 1)/6
= 4/6
= 2/3

∴ বাকি কাজ = 1 - ( 1/2) = 1/2

∴ সময় = (1/2)/( 2/3) = 3/4 ঘণ্টা = (3 × 60)/4 = 45 মিনিট

∴ ট্যাঙ্ক পূর্ণ হওয়ার সময় = 11 টা + 45 মিনিট =  11 : 45 মিনিট

Solution: 
let length = x and breadth = y
2(x + y) = 32         
⇒  x + y = 16

x2 + y2 = 102

⇒ 100 + 2xy = 256
⇒ 2xy = 256 - 100 = 156
 ⇒ xy = 78 

∴ area = xy = 78 sq.cm

Question: Two pipes A and B would fill the tank in 20 and 30 minutes respectively. Both pipes being open, find when A must be turned off so that the tank may be just filled in 15 minutes.

Solution:
Let,
after x minutes pipe A must be turned off
Part fill by (A + B ) in 1 minutes = (1/20) + (1/30) = 1/12
Part fill by (A + B ) in x minutes = x/12

Then,
Pipe B does the job = (15 - x) minutes
In (15 - x) minutes Pipe B can fill the tank (15 - x) part

ATQ,
x/12 + (15 - x)/30 = 1
⇒ (5x + 30 - 2x)/60 = 1
⇒ 3x + 30 = 60
⇒ 3x = 30

Question: The sale price of an article including the Sales Tax is Tk. 616. The rate of Sales Tax is 10%. If the shopkeeper has made a profit of 12%, then the cost price of the article is-

Solution:
Let,
The cost price be x.
Selling price = x + 12% of x
= x + (12x/100)
= 28x/25

ATQ,
(28x/25) + 10% of (28x/25) = 616
⇒ (28x/25) + (280x/2500) = 616
⇒ (28x/25) + (14x/125) = 616
⇒ (140x + 14x)/125 = 616
⇒ 154x = 77000
∴ x = 500

∴ Cost price tk. 500.

In 1 day Z can do = 1/15
In 1 day X + Y can do = 1/10
Given, X = Y + Z
So, X + Y + Z = 1/15 + 1/10 = 1/6
OR, Y + Z + Y + Z = 2(Y + Z) = 1/6
OR, Y + Z = 1/12
OR, Y = 1/12 -1/15 = 1/60
∴ Y alone can do the work in 60 days.

Question: Average score of a class of 70 students, in an exam, was 43. Average score of the students who had passed is 50 and average score of students who had failed is 15. How many students failed in the exam? 

Solution: 
Let total number of students fail = x
So, total number of student passed = 70 -x
Then, 
50(70 - x) + 15x = 70 × 43
⇒ 3500 - 50x + 15x = 3010
⇒ 35x = 3500 - 3010
⇒ 35x = 490
∴ x = 14

Question: Solution Y is 30 percent liquid X and 70 percent water. If 2 kilograms of water evaporate from 8 kilograms of solutions Y and 2 kilograms of solution Y are added to the remaining 6 kilograms of liquid, what percent of this new liquid solution is liquid X?

Solution:
At the beggining, we have 8 KG of solution Y,
70% of 8 KG = 5.6 KG of Water
30% of 8 KG = 2.4 KG of X

2KG of water evaporate:
now remaining
5.6 KG - 2 KG = 3.6 KG of Water
2.4 KG of X

2KG of liquid are added:
Now,
3.6 KG + 2 × 0.70 = 5 KG of Water
2.4 KG + 2 × 0.30 = 3 KG of X

So we have 3 KG of X in 8 KG (3 + 5) solution.
Therefore X concentration is (3/8) × 100% = 37.5%

সমাধান:
১ম ক্ষেত্রে,
মুনাফা = ৩০০০ × ১ × (১০/১০০) টাকা 
= ৩০০ টাকা 

২য় ক্ষেত্রে,
মুনাফা = ২০০০ × ১ × (৮/১০০) টাকা 
= ১৬০ টাকা 

মোট মূলধন = ৩০০০ + ২০০০ টাকা 
= ৫০০০ টাকা 

মোট মুনাফা = ৩০০ + ১৬০ টাকা 
= ৪৬০ টাকা 

গড়ে শতকরা হার= ৪৬০/(৫০০০ × ১)
= (৪৬০ × ১০০)/৫০০০ %
= ৯.২%

Question: If the average (arithmetic mean) of five distinct positive integers is 10, what is the difference between the largest possible value of the greatest integer and the least possible value of greatest of the five integers?

Solution: 
Let the five numbers be v, w, x, y and z such that v > w> x > y > z; it is given that none of them are equal.

Let us first find the largest possible value of the largest integer among the five, i.e. v.
We must aim to keep the integers (w, y, x and z) as small as possible such that they are distinct.
Thus, z=1, (smallest possible positive integer), x = 2, y = 3 and w = 4.
Since the average of the five integers =10,
the sum of the integers =5 × 10 = 50

⇒ v = (Sum of the five numbers) - (Sum of the four numbers)
⇒ v = 50 - (1 + 2 + 3 + 4) = 40
Thus, the largest possible value of the greatest of the five numbers = 40.

Let us now find the least possible value of the greatest among the five, i.e. v.
We must aim to keep all the five integers as close to each other as possible.
Let us assume that the middle-most integer x=10, because the average is 10.
Let's make y less than x by the minimum possible positive value, i.e., 1, thus y=10 - 1= 9; similarly, z = 9 -1 = 8.
 w=10 + 1 = 11 and v= 11 + 1 = 12.

Thus, we get the values:
v=12, w=11, x=10, y=9, and z=8.
Thus, the least possible value of the greatest of the five numbers =12.

Thus, the difference between the largest possible value of the greatest integer and the least possible value of the greatest of the five integers
= 40 - 12 = 28

Question: A man is 26 years older than his son. In two years, his age will be twice the age of his son. The present age of his son is:

Solution: 
Let the son's present age be x years.
Then, the man's present age = (x + 26) years.

∴ (x + 26) + 2 = 2(x + 2)
⇒ x + 28 = 2x + 4
⇒ x = 24

∴ The present age of his son = 24 years.
