Question: The ratio between two numbers is 7 : 9. If 25% of the smaller number is added to 30% of the larger number, the result is 178. What is the greater number?

Solution:
Let the numbers be 7x and 9x.
Then, 
25% of the smaller = 0.25 × 7x = 1.75x
30% of the larger = 0.30 × 9x = 2.7x

According to the question,
1.75x + 2.7x = 178
⇒ 4.45x = 178
⇒ x = 178/4.45
∴ x = 40

∴ The greater number is (9 × 40) = 360

Question:

In ΔPQS above, if PQ =3 and PS = 4, then PR =?

Solution:
Hypotenuse = QS = √(32 + 42) = √(9 + 16) = √25 = 5 

The area of the triangle PQS is, area = (1/2) × PQ × PS = (1/2) × 3 × 4 = 6

But the area can be found in another way too:
area = (1/2) × PR × QS = (5/2) × PR
⇒ (5/2) × PR = 6
⇒ PR = (6 × 2)/5
∴ PR = 12/5

Question: A, B and C can do a piece of work in 12, 18 and 36 days respectively. In how many days can A do the work if he is assisted by B and C on every third day?

Solution:
A's 2 day's work = (1/12) × 2 = 1/6 part
(A + B + C)' s 1 day's work = (1/12 + 1/18 + 1/36) = 6/36 = 1/6 part

Work done in 3 days = (1/6 + 1/6) = 2/6 = 1/3 part

Now,
1/3 part work is done in 3 days.
∴ Whole work will be done in (3 × 3) = 9 days

Question: In a football championship, there are 15 matches. If each team plays one match with every other team, the number of teams is-

Solution:
Let n be the number of teams.
nC2 = 15
⇒ n!/{2! × (n - 2)!} = 15
⇒ {n(n - 1)(n - 2)!}/{2! × (n - 2)!} = 15
⇒ n(n - 1)/2 = 15
⇒ n(n - 1) = 30
⇒ n2 - n - 30 = 0
⇒ n - 6n + 5n - 30 = 0
⇒ n(n - 6) + 5(n - 6) = 0
⇒ (n - 6)(n + 5)
∴ n = 6 [Negative value is not acceptable]

Question: A merchant has 1000 kg of sugar, part of which he sells at 8% and the remaining at 18% profit. He gains 14% on the whole. Find the quantity of sugar that he sold at 18% profit.

Solution: 
Let
The cost price of sugar be tk. x per kg 
Then Total cost price = Tk.1000x
The sugar sold at 8% gain by y kg 
The sugar sold at 18% gain by (1000 - y) kg 

Now
(108xy/100) + {118x(1000 - y)/100} = (114/100) × 1000x
(108y/100) + 1180 - (118y/100) = 1140
1180 - 1140 = (118y/100) - (108y/100)
40 = 10y/100
40 = y/10
y = 400

The sugar sold at 18% gain by (1000 - 400) kg 
= 600 kg

ধরি, স্থির পানিতে নৌকার গতিবেগ = 4k কিমি/ঘন্টা
এবং স্রোতের গতিবেগ = 3k কিমি/ঘন্টা।

স্রোতের প্রতিকূলে (Upstream) নৌকার গতিবেগ = (4k - 3k) কিমি/ঘন্টা
= 1k কিমি/ঘন্টা।
স্রোতের অনুকূলে (Downstream) নৌকার গতিবেগ = (4k + 3k) কিমি/ঘন্টা
= 7k কিমি/ঘন্টা।

প্রশ্ন অনুযায়ী,
স্রোতের প্রতিকূলে 20 কিমি যেতে সময় লাগে 4 ঘন্টা।
অতএব, স্রোতের প্রতিকূলে গতিবেগ = 20 কিমি/4 ঘন্টা
= 5 কিমি/ঘন্টা।
সুতরাং, 1k = 5
⇒ k = 5

এখন, স্রোতের অনুকূলে নৌকার গতিবেগ = 7k = 7 × 5 = 35 কিমি/ঘন্টা।
∴ স্রোতের অনুকূলে 3 ঘন্টায় অতিক্রান্ত দূরত্ব, x = 35 কিমি/ঘন্টা × 3 ঘন্টা
= 105 কিমি।

Question: On Sundays, a museum attracts around 510 visitors, while on weekdays, it has about 240. Calculate the average daily visitors in a 30-day month starting on a Sunday.

Solution:
Since, the month begins with a Sunday, so there will be 5 Sundays and 25 other days in this month.

Total visitors in Sundays = 5 × 510 = 2550
Total visitors in other days = 25 × 240 = 6000

∴ Total visiotors in the whole month = (2550 + 6000) = 8550

∴ Average number of visitors per day of the month = 8550/30 = 285

∴ W = 20 - A ................(1)

ATQ,
A : (W + C) = 1 : 3
⇒ A/(W + 8) = 1/3
⇒ 3A = W + 8
⇒ W = 3A - 8  ................(2)

From (1) and (2)
3A - 8 = 20 - A
⇒ 4A = 28
⇒ A = 7

∴  7 liters of alcohol is present in the mixture.

প্রশ্ন: On dividing a number by 5, we get 3 as remainder. What will be the remainder when the square of this number is divided by 5?

সমাধান:
Let the number be x and on dividing x by 5, we get m as quotient and 3 as remainder.
∴ x = 5m + 3
⇒ x2 = (5m + 3)2
= (25m2 + 30m + 9)
= 5(5m2 + 6m + 1) + 4

∴ On dividing x2 by 5, we get 4 as remainder.

Question: At what rate percent per annum will a sum of Tk. 64,000 amount to Tk. 85,184 in 3 years at compound interest?

Solution:
Given that,
Principal, P = Tk. 64,000
Amount, C = Tk. 85,184
Time, n = 3 years

We know,
C = P(1 + r)n
⇒ 85,184 = 64,000 × {1 + (r/100)}3
⇒ 85,184/64,000 = {1 + (r/100)}3
⇒ 1.331 = {1 + (r/100)}3
⇒ (1.1)3 = {1 + (r/100)}3

∴ 1 + (r/100) = 1.1
⇒ r/100 = 0.1
∴ r = 10%

Question: The second term of a geometric progression is 10 and the fifth term is 80. What is the common ratio?

Solution: 
Let the first term = a
Common ratio = r

We know,
n term of geometric progression = arn - 1
∴ Second term = ar = 10
And fifth term   = ar4 = 80

Now, divide the second equation by the first. Then we get,
(ar4)/(ar) = 80/10
⇒ r3 = 8
⇒ r3 = 23
∴ r = 2

So the common ratio is 2.

একটি ঘড়িকে পুনরায় সঠিক সময় দেখাতে হলে তাকে 12 ঘণ্টা সময় এগিয়ে যেতে হবে।
কারণ একটি 12 ঘণ্টার ঘড়িতে যখন সঠিক সময় থেকে 12 ঘণ্টা এগিয়ে যাবে, তখন এটি আবার সঠিক সময় নির্দেশ করবে।

12 ঘণ্টা = 12 × 60 মিনিট = 720 মিনিট

এখন, যেহেতু ঘড়িটি প্রতিদিন 10 মিনিট করে সময় এগিয়ে যায়,

10 মিনিট সময় এগিয়ে যায় 1 দিনে
∴ 720 মিনিট সময় এগিয়ে যাবে = (1/10) × 720 দিনে
= 72 দিনে

সুতরাং, 72 দিন পর ঘড়িটি আবার সঠিক সময় দেখাবে।

Let the present age of father and son be x and y years respectively.
10 years ago, father's age was (x-10) years and son's age was (y-10) years
According to the question
(x-10) = 3(y-10)
⇒ x-10 = 3y-30
⇒ 3y - x = 20
After 10 years,
Age of father will be (x + 10) years and that of son will be (y + 10) years
Again, (x + 10) = 2(y + 10)
x + 10 = 2y + 20
x - 2y=10
From 3y - x = 20 and x - 2y=10,
we get y = 30 and x = 70
Thus ratio of father and son's age is 70 : 30 = 7 : 3

Question: In a certain country, a person born every 8 seconds and a person dies every 12 seconds. Therefore, the birth and death rates amount for a population growth rate of one person every-

Solution:
Let,
x be the number of seconds for the birth of every new person.

We know,
Birth rate - Death rate = Population growth

ATQ,
⇒ 1 person/8 seconds - 1 person/12 seconds = 1 person/x seconds
⇒ (3 - 2) person/24 seconds = 1 person/x seconds
⇒ 1 person/24 seconds = 1 person/x seconds
∴ x = 24 seconds

Let the ten’s digit be x.
Then, unit’s digit = (x+3).
Sum of the digits = x + (x +3) = 2x + 3.
Number = 10x + (x+3) = 11x + 3.
(11x + 3)/(2x + 3) = 4/1
11x + 3 = 8x + 12
11x - 8x = 12 - 3
3x = 9
x = 3
Hence, Required number = 11x + 3 = 36.

Question: All distinct permutations of the letters of the word PRIDE are arranged in alphabetical order. What is the rank of the word PRIDE?

Solution:
Here,
The order of each letter in the dictionary is DEIPR.

Now,
with D in the beginning, the remaining letters can be permuted = 4! ways.
= 24 ways

Similarly,
with E in the beginning, the remaining letters can be permuted = 4! ways.
= 24 ways

Similarly,
with I in the beginning, the remaining letters can be permuted = 4! ways.
= 24 ways

Now,
with P in the beginning and R in the second position,
the remaining letters are D, E, I.

Before R, there are D, E, I.

So permutations = 3 × 3!
= 3 × 6
= 18

Now,
with P and R fixed, the remaining letters are D, E, I.

Before I, there are D, E.

So permutations = 2 × 2!
= 2 × 2
= 4

Finally,
add the word itself.

Hence, the rank of the word PRIDE
= 24 + 24 + 24 + 18 + 4 + 1
= 95

Question: The average age of A and B was 18 years five years ago. Now, the average age of A, B, and C is 24 years. What will C's age be in five years?
(৫ বছর আগে A এবং B-এর গড় বয়স ছিল ১৮ বছর। বর্তমানে, A, B, এবং C-এর গড় বয়স ২৪ বছর। ৫ বছর পর C-এর বয়স কী হবে?)

Solution:
5 বছর আগে A ও B এর বয়সের যোগফল = 18 × 2 = 36 years.
A ও B এর বর্তমান বয়সের যোগফল = 5 + 5 + 36 = 46 years.
A, B ও C এর বর্তমান বয়সের যোগফল = 24 × 3 = 72 years.

∴ C এর বর্তমান বয়স = 72 - 46 = 26 years.

∴ 5 বছর পর C এর বয়স = 26 + 5 = 31 years.

Suppose, he traveled at 4 km/h for p hours and @5 km/h for q hours.
So, 4p+5q = 35 -------- (i)
According to the question,
5(p+q) = 35+2
⇒ 5p + 5q = 37 -------- (ii)
Solving these two equations, we get,
p = 2, q = 27/5
So, total time taken = 2 + 27/5 = 37/5 hr = 7hr + 2×60/5 min = 7 hr 24 min.

সমাধান:
ধরি,
মায়ের বর্তমান বয়স = ৭ক বছর
মেয়ের বর্তমান বয়স = ২ক বছর

৫ বছর পর,
মায়ের বয়স হবে = ৭ক + ৫
মেয়ের বয়স হবে = ২ক + ৫

প্রশ্নানুসারে,
(৭ক + ৫)/(২ক + ৫) = ৮/৩
⇒ ৩(৭ক + ৫) = ৮(২ক + ৫)
⇒ ২১ক + ১৫ = ১৬ক + ৪০
⇒ ২১ক - ১৬ক = ৪০ - ১৫
⇒ ৫ক = ২৫
∴ ক = ৫

∴ মেয়ের বর্তমান বয়স = ২ক = ২ × ৫ = ১০ বছর
∴ ১০ বছর পর মেয়ের বয়স = ১০ + ১০ = ২০ বছর
