Average age of man and his daughter = 34 years
Their total age = (34 × 2) years = 68 years
Let man's age be x years,
Then daughter age = (68 - x) years
∴(x + 4)/(68 - x + 4) =14/5
⇒5(x + 4) = 14(72 −x)
⇒5x + 20= 1008 − 14x
⇒19x =988
⇒ x =52

∴ Daughter's present age
= (68 - 52) years
= 16 years

Here
Length of a train is 1300m
Train took 130 sec to cross a tree
Length of a platform is 800m

Speed of the train = 1300/130 = 10 m/sec
Total distance = 1300 + 800 = 2100 m

Time = distance/speed

Question: 3/7 part of the tank is full of water. When 42 liters of water is taken out, the tank becomes empty. The capacity of the tank is -

Solution:
Let us consider,
The tank has 7x liters of total capacity and holds 3x litres of water.
And if 42 liters of water is taken out, then the tank becomes empty.

It means 3x litres of water is taken out.
∴ 3x = 42 liters
⇒ x = 14 liters

∴ Capacity of tank = 7x = 7 × 14 = 98 liters

Question: What is the difference between the simple interest and the compound interest on a sum of Tk. 8000 for 2 years at the rate of 10% per annum when the interest is compounded yearly?

Solution:
Given that,
Principal, P = Tk. 8000
Rate, r = 10% per annum
Time, n = 2 years

Wee know,
SI = (P × r × n)/100
= (8000 × 10 × 2)/100
= 160000/100
= Tk. 1600

And,
Compound Interest (CI) – compounded annually
= P(1 + r)ⁿ- P
= P × (1 + 10/100)² - 8000
= 8000 × (1 + 1/10)² - 8000
= 8000 × (1.1)² - 8000
= 8000 × 1.21
= 9680 - 8000
= Tk. 1680

Difference between CI and SI
= 1680 - 1600
= Tk. 80

Question: A and B are two positive integers such that AB = 60. Which of the following cannot be the value of A + B?

Solution:
Factor pairs of 60:
(1, 60) → A + B = 61
(2, 30) → A + B = 32
(3, 20) → A + B = 23
(4, 15) → A + B = 19
(5, 12) → A + B = 17
(6, 10) → A + B = 16

So, possible values of A + B are: 61, 32, 23, 19, 17, 16.

Among the options, 20 is not possible.

Solution:
Let A, B, C represent their respective weights.
Then, we have,
A + B + C = (50 × 3) = 150 ........(i)
A + B = (46 × 2) = 92 ........(ii)
B + C = (52 × 2) = 104 .........(iii)

Adding (ii) and (iii), we get:
A + 2B + C = 92 + 104 = 196 ........(iv)
And,
Subtracting (iv) from (i),
A + 2B + C - (A + B + C) = 196 - 150
B = 46

∴ B's weight = 46 kg

Question: A man can row three-quarters of a kilometre against the stream in 11.25 minutes and down the stream in 7.5 minutes. The speed (in km/hr) of the man in still water is:

Solution:
Three - quarters of a kilometer = (3 × 1000)/4 meters = 750 meters

11.25 minutes = 11.25 × 60 = 675 sec
7.5 minutes = 7.5 × 60 = 450sec

Rate upstream = 750/ 675 m/sec
= 10/9 m/sec

Rate downstream =750/450 m/sec
= 5/3 m/sec

∴Rate in still water = (1/2){(10/9) + (5/3)} m/sec
= (1/2){(10 + 15)/9}
= (1/2)(25/9)
= 25/18
= (25/18)(18/5) km/hr.
= 5 km/hr

Question: 10 years ago, the average age of a family of 4 members was 24 years. Since then, two children have been born. Still, the average age of the family is the same today. If the two children differ in age by 2 years, find the present age of the younger child.

Solution:
Total age of 4 members, 10 years ago = (24 × 4) years = 96 years.
Total age of 4 members now = 4 × (24 + 10) = 136 years
Total age of 4 members now = (24 × 6) years = 144 years.

The sum of the ages of 2 children = (144 - 136) years
= 8 years

Let, the age of the younger child be x years
Then, age of elder child = (x + 2) years
So, x + x + 2 = 8
⇒ 2x = 6
∴ x = 3

So, the age of the younger child 3 years.

Question: Due to a 10% reduction in the price of tea, a dealer can purchase 25 kg more tea for TK. 22500. Find the reduced price per kg.

Solution:
Let the original price per kg be x.
After a 10% reduction, New price per kg = x - 10% of x = 0.9x
Total money = TK. 22500

According to the question, the dealer can buy 25 kg more tea after the reduction.
So,
⇒ 22500/0.9x = (22500/x) + 25
⇒ 25000/x = (22500/x) + 25
⇒ (25000/x) - (22500/x) = 25
⇒ (25000 - 22500)/x = 25
⇒ 2500/x = 25
⇒ x = 2500/25
∴ x = 100

So, original price per kg = Tk. 100

∴ Reduced price per kg = 0.9 × 100 = Tk. 90

So the reduced price per kg of tea is Tk. 90.

Solution:
Given that,
Principal, P = Tk. 5000
Amount, A = Tk. 6050
Time, n = 2 years

We know,
A = P(1 + r/100)ⁿ
⇒ 6050 = 5000 × (1 + r/100)²
⇒ (1 + r/100)² = 6050/5000
⇒ (1 + r/100)² = 121/100
⇒ 1 + (r/100) = √(121/100) = 11/10
⇒ r/100 = (11/10) - 1
⇒ r/100 = (11 - 10)/10
⇒ r/100 = 1/10
⇒ r = 100/10
∴ r = 10%

So the annual compound interest rate is 10%.

Assuming that face value of the first stock = Tk. 100 as it is not given in the question.
Since it is a 5% stock, we can take the dividend per stock = Tk. 5
Market Value of the first stock = Tk. 104
Investment on the first stock = Tk. 26000
Number of stocks purchases = 26000/104 = 250
His total income from all these stocks = Tk. 250 × 5 = Tk. 1250
He sells each of these stocks at Tk. 120
ie, amount he earns = Tk. 120 × 250 = Tk. 30000
He invests this Tk. 30000 in 6% stock (here also face value is not given and hence take it as Tk. 100)
His new income = Tk. (1250 + 2500) = Tk. 3750
ie, By Tk. 30000 of investment, he earns an income of Tk. 3750
To get an income of Tk. 6, the investment needed = (30000 × 6)/3750
= Tk. 48.

Question: The LCM and HCF of two numbers are 495 and 5. If the sum of the numbers is 100, what is the difference of the numbers?

Solution:
let,
one number is x
∴ another number is (100 - x)

∴ x(100 - x) = 5 × 495
or, 100x - x² = 2475
or, x² - 100x + 2475 = 0
or, x² - 55x - 45x + 2475 = 0
or, x(x - 55) - 45(x - 55) = 0
or, (x - 55)(x - 45) = 0
∴ x = 45, 55
∴ the numbers are 45 and 55.
difference = 55 - 45 = 10

Solution:
In the figure,
PS is perpendicular to QR. PQ = PR = 26 and PS= 24,

In ΔPQS,
PQ² = PS² + QS²
⇒ QS² = PQ² - PS²
∴ QS = √(PQ² - PS²)
= √(26² - 24²)
= √(676 - 576)
= √100
= 10

Similarly,
In ΔPRS,
PR² = PS² + RS²
⇒ RS² = PR² - PS²
∴ RS = √(PQ² - PS²)
= √(26² - 24²)
= √(676 - 576)
= √100
= 10

∴ QR = QS + RS = 10 + 10 = 20

Solution:
Here,
A = 21000, T = 2, R = 20%
⇒ A = P + SI
⇒ A = P + (P × R × T/100)
⇒ A = P [1 + (R × T/100)]
⇒ 21000 = P [1 + 0.4]
⇒ P = 21000/1.4
⇒ P = 15000
Thus, the required sum is Tk. 15000

Question: The marked price of a shirt and trousers are in the ratio 1 : 2. The shopkeeper gives 40% discount on the shirt. If the total discount in the set of the shirt and trousers is 30%, the discount offered on the trousers is:

Solution:
Let,
the price of shirt and trouser be Tk. 100 and Tk. 200 respectively.
Then, price of set of shirt and trouser = Tk. 300.

After giving 30% discount on the set,
Selling Price = 300 - 30% of 300
= 210.

∴ Total Discount on Set = Original price × Discount percentage
= 300 × (30/100)
= 300 × 0.30
= Tk. 90

And Discount on shirt is 20% alone,
SP of shirt alone = 100 - 40% of 100 = 60.
Tk. 40 is the discount on shirt then Tk. 50 must be the discount on the trouser.
So, discount on trouser = (50 × 100)/200 = 25%

Question: If the price of sugar decreases by 20%, by what percentage must sugar consumption increase to keep the total expenditure the same?

Solution:
মনে করি,
চিনির পূর্বমূল্য = 100 টাকা

চিনির মূল্য 20% হ্রাস পেলে,
নতুন মূল্য হয়= 100 - 100 এর 20% = 100 - 20 = 80 টাকা

চিনির মূল্য হ্রাস পায় = 100 - 80 = 20 টাকা

তাহলে, খরচ একই রাখতে হলে 20 টাকার সমপরিমান চিনি বেশি ব্যাবহার করতে হবে।

এখন,
চিনির ব্যাবহার 80 টাকায় বৃদ্ধি করতে হবে = 20 টাকা
∴ 1 টাকায় বৃদ্ধি করতে হবে = 20/80 টাকা
∴ 100 টাকায় বৃদ্ধি করতে হবে = (20× 100) / 80 = 25 টাকা

সুতরাং চিনির ব্যাবহার শতকরা 25% বৃদ্ধি করতে হবে।

Solution:
The second train has traveled 144 km more than the first train because the speed of second train is 24 km/hr more than first.
Time taken by second train to cover 144 km with surplus 24km/hr = 144/24 = 6 hours.
then, time taken by both train before meeting is 6 hours.
So, their relative speed = 48 + 72 = 120
Total distance travel by both = 120 × 6 = 720 km
Distance between A and B = 720 km

Solution:
ধরি,
শুরুতে জারের মধ্যে তেলের পরিমাণ = 7x লিটার
পানির পরিমাণ = 5x লিটার
∴ মোট অংশ = 12x

9 লিটার মিশ্রণ ফেলে দিলে,
ফেলে দেওয়া মিশ্রণে তেলের পরিমাণ = 9 এর (7x/12x) = 21/4 লিটার
এবং পানির পরিমাণ = 9 এর (5x/12x) = 15/4 লিটার

বাকি মিশ্রণে,
তেলের পরিমাণ = 7x - (21/4) = (28x - 21)/4
পানির পরিমাণ = 5x - (15/4) = (20x - 15)/4

মিশ্রণে 9 লিটার পানি যোগ করা হলে পানির নতুন পরিমাণ = {(20x - 15)/4} + 9 = (20x - 15 + 36)/4 = (20x + 21)/4

প্রশ্নমতে,
{(28x - 21)/4}/{(20x + 21)/4} = 7/9
⇒ (28x - 21)/(20x + 21) = 7/9
⇒ 9(28x - 21) = 7(20x + 21)
⇒ 252x - 189 = 140x + 147
⇒ 252x - 140x = 189 + 147
⇒ 112x = 336
⇒ x = 336/112
⇒ x = 3

∴ শুরুতে মিশ্রণে তেলের পরিমাণ ছিলো = (7 × 3) লিটার = 21 লিটার

Solution:

PQ = 10 and let RQ be X.

RQ/PQ = tan60°
⇒ X/10 = √3
∴ X = 10√3

Now,
PR² = X² + (10)²
PR² = (10√3)² + (10)² = 300 + 100
PR² = 400
∴ PR = 20

Height of tree = RQ + PR

Solution:
Total ways to create 5-digit identification code = 5!

Both even number cannot be together.
When both the even digits are taken together as one digit, we have 4 digits, that is 1, 3, 5 and (24) or, 4! to arrange 4 digits
and 2 & 4 can be arranged in 2! ways within themselves. Hence, 4! × 2

Ways we are looking at = 5! - 4 × 2! = 120 - 48 = 72

A train is moving at the rate 8 mi/h along a piece of circular track of radius 2,500 ft. Through what angle does it turn in 1 min?

সমাধান:
৮ মাইল/ঘণ্টা = (৮ × ৫২৮০)/৬০ ফুট/মিনিট [১ মাইল = ৫২৮০ ফুট]
= ৭০৪ ফুট/মিনিট

২৫০০ ফুট ব্যাসার্ধ বিশিষ্ট পথের পরিধি = ২ × π × ২৫০০ ফুট
= ৫০০০π ফুট

মোট সময় = ৫০০০π ÷ ৭০৪ মিনিট
= ৬২৫π/৮৮ মিনিট

একবার ঘুরলে ট্রেনটি অতিক্রম করে ৩৬০° = ২π রেডিয়ান

৬২৫π/৮৮ মিনিটে উৎপন্ন করে ২π রেডিয়ান
∴ ১ মিনিটে উৎপন্ন করে (২π × ৮৮)/৬২৫π রেডিয়ান
= ০.২৮১৬ রেডিয়ান

এখন,
০.২৮১৬ রেডিয়ান
= (০.২৮১৬ × ১৮০)/π
= ১৬.১৩°

Question: Which amount to be received after 4 years at the rate of 7% p.a. of simple interest on a sum of Tk. 2600?

Soution:
Given,
Rate of interest, r = 7%
Pricipal, P = 2600 Tk.
Time, n = 4 years.

∴ Total interest, I = Pnr
= (2600 × 4 × 7)/100
= 728 Tk.

So, amount = Principal + Simple interest
= (2600 + 728) Tk.
= 3328 Tk.

Solution:
Let 7 years ago, ages of A and B were 4k years and 5k years, respectively.
Then, the present age of A = 4k + 7
and present age of B = 5k + 7

ATQ,
∴ (4k + 7 + 7)/(5k + 7 + 7) = 5/6
⇒ 24k + 84 = 25k + 70
⇒ k = 14
Hence, B's present age = 5 × 14 + 7 = 77 years

Solution:
প্রশ্নমতে, ত্রিভুজের তিনটি বাহুর দৈর্ঘ্যের যোগফল তার পরিসীমার সমান।
2x + (3x + 1) + (4x − 1) = 36

সমীকরণটি সমাধান করে পাই,
(2x + 3x + 4x) + (1 − 1) = 36
9x = 36
x = 36 / 9
x = 4

এখন, x এর মান বসিয়ে বাহুগুলোর দৈর্ঘ্য নির্ণয় করি:
প্রথম বাহু = 2x = 2 × 4 = 8 সেমি
দ্বিতীয় বাহু = 3x + 1 = 3 × 4 + 1 = 13 সেমি
তৃতীয় বাহু = 4x − 1 = 4 × 4 − 1 = 15 সেমি

সুতরাং, সবচেয়ে বড় বাহুটি হলো 15 সেমি।

Question: A 280 metre long train crosses a platform thrice its length in 50 seconds. What is the speed of the train in km/hr?

Solution:
Given that,
Length of the train = 280 m
Length of the platform = 3 × 280 = 840 m

∴ Total distance to be covered
= Train length + Platform length
= 280 + 840
= 1120m
And, Time taken = 50 seconds

∴ Speed = Distance/Time
= 1120/50
= 22.4 m/s
= 22.4 × 3.6 ;[1 m/s = 3.6 km/h]
= 80.64 km/h

∴ The speed of the train is 80.64 km/h.

Question: A cube-shaped box with a side length of 9 meters contains another cube-shaped box inside it. The empty space accommodates 217,000 liters of water. What is the surface area of the smaller box?

Solution:
আমরা জানি,
১০০০ লিটার = ১ ঘন মি.
∴ ২১৭০০০ লিটার = (২১৭০০০/১০০০) = ২১৭ ঘন মি.

অর্থাৎ, খালি অংশের আয়তন = ২১৭ ঘন মি.

বড় বক্সের আয়তন = (৯)^৩ ঘন মি. = ৭২৯ ঘন মি.

∴ ছোট বক্সের আয়তন = ৭২৯ - ২১৭ = ৫১২ ঘন মি.

ছোট বক্সের এক বাহুর দৈর্ঘ্য = ^৩√৫১২ = ৮ মি.

∴ ছোট বক্সের সমগ্রতলের ক্ষেত্রফল = ৬ × (৮)^২ বর্গ মি.
