Solution:
ধরি, 
২টি পোলের মধ্যবর্তী দূরুত্ব = x মিটার
১ম পোল থেকে ১২তম পোলের মধ্যবর্তী দূরুত্ব = 11x  মিটার
১২তম পোল থেকে ২৩তম পোলের মধ্যবর্তী দূরুত্ব = 11x  মিটার

যেহেতু, প্রত্যেক পোলের দূরুত্ব সমান।
তাই ১ম পোল থেকে ১২তম পোলে যেতে যত সময় লাগবে ১২তম পোল থেকে ২৩তম পোলে যেতে একই সময় লাগবে।

১ম পোল থেকে ১২তম পোলে যেতে সময় লাগে = 24 সেকেন্ড
১২তম পোল থেকে ২৩তম পোলে যেতে সময় লাগে = 24 সেকেন্ড

মোট সময় লাগবে = (24 + 24) সেকেন্ড = 48 সেকেন্ড

Question: A rectangular water reservoir cantains 72000 litres of water. If the length of reservoir is 8m and breadth of the reservoir is 4.5m, then the depth of the reservoir will be?

Solution:
Given that,
Volume of the reservoir = 72,000 liters
Length = 8 m
Breadth = 4.5 m
Depth = ?

∴ 72,000 liters =72,000​/1000 = 72 m3   [1 cubic meter = 1000 liters]

We know,
⇒ Volume = Length × Breadth × Depth
⇒ Depth = Volume/(Length × Breadth)
⇒ Depth = 72/(8 × 4.5)
⇒ Depth = 72/36
⇒ Depth = 2m
∴The depth of the reservoir is 2 meters.

  5. ঙ) 15 kmph
সঠিক উত্তর:
খ) 48 kmph
উত্তর
সঠিক উত্তর:
খ) 48 kmph
ব্যাখ্যা

V = (2 × 40 × 60)/(40 + 60) = 48kmph

Alternative method:
Average speed is total distance travelled divided by total time taken.

Let the distance travelled is 2x or half of distance is x.

The first half of distance x is travelled with speed of 40km/hr, so time taken is x/40 hr.

Similarly time taken to travel the remaining x km is at speed of 60km/hr, so time taken for this 2nd half of distance is x/60.

Now, the total time taken to travel 2x distance is = x/40 + x/60 hr
= 3x/120 + 2x/120hr
= 5x/120 hr
= x/24 hr.

The average speed of car is 2x/(x/24) or 2 × 24 km/hr or 48km/hr.

ব্যাখ্যা

Questjion: A man buys an article for 20% less than its value and sells it for 20% more than its value. What is his gain or loss percentage?

Solution: 
Let, the value of article is x Tk.

Buying price at 20% less,
= x - 20% of x
= x - (20x/100)
= x - 0.2x
= 0.8x Tk.

Selling Price at 20% more, 
= x + 20% of x
= x + 0.2x
= 1.2x Tk.

Profit = 1.2x - 0.8x
= 0.4x Tk.

∴ Profit Percentage = (0.4x/0.8x) × 100%
= (40/0.8)%
= 50%

∴ The gain percentage is 50%.

ব্যাখ্যা

Question: The population of a town increases by 10% in the first year and decreases by 10% in the next year. What is the overall percentage change?

Solution:
Let the initial population = 100

Population after 1st year (10% increase)
Population = 100 + 10% of 100 = 100 + 10 = 110

Population after 2nd year (10% decrease)
Population = 110 - 10% of 110 = 110 - 11 = 99

Overall change = Final population - Initial population
= 99 - 100
= - 1

Overall percentage change = (- 1/100) × 100% = - 1%

∴ Population decreased by 1%

Question: In a survey, 30% of the people surveyed owned a personal computer and 75% owned a cellular telephone. If 25% owned both a cellular telephone and a personal computer, then the percentage of the people who does not have either of the instrument?

Solution: 
 people surveyed owned a personal computer = n(P) = 30%
 people surveyed owned a cellular telephone = n(C) = 75%
 people surveyed owned both a cellular telephone and a personal computer = n(P ∩ C) = 25%

people surveyed owned both or anyone of them = n (P ∪ C)
= n(P) + n(C) - n(P ∩ C)
= 30% + 75% - 25%
= 80%

∴ then the percentage of the people who does not have either of the instrument = 100% - 80% 
= 20%

Question: A can complete a piece of work in 6 days working 8 hours a day, and B can complete the same work in 12 days working 8 hours a day. How long will it take them to complete the work together if they work 4 hours a day?

Solution:
A can complete the work in 8 × 6 = 48 hours
1 hour's work of A = 1/48 part

B can complete the work in 8 × 12 = 96 hours
1 hour's work of B = 1/96 part

(A + B)'s 1 hour's work = (1/48) + (1/96) part
= (2 + 1)/96 part
= 3/96 part
= 1/32

∴ Time taken by (A + B) working 4 hours daily = 32/(1 × 4)
= 8 days

Question: There are two squares S1 and S2. The ratio of their areas is 9 : 16. If the side of S1 is 12 cm. What is the side of S2?

Solution:
Given that,
Two squares S1​ and S2
Area of S1 : Area of S2 = 9 : 16
Side of S1 = 12 cm

Now,
Let the side of S2​ be x cm.
Then,
(Side of S1)2 : (Side of S2)2 = 9 : 16
⇒ 122 : x2 = 9 : 16
⇒ 144/x2 = 9/16
⇒ x2 = (144 × 16)/9
⇒ x2 = 256 
⇒ x2 = 162
∴ x = 16

So the side of S2​ is 16 cm.

Question: What is the angle between the hour and minute hands of a clock when it is 3:15 pm?

Solution:
3টা 15 মিনিট = 3 + (15/60) ঘন্টা = 3 + 1/4 = 13/4 ঘন্টা

আমরা জানি, ঘণ্টার কাঁটা 12 ঘণ্টায় 360° ঘোরে।
∴ 1 ঘণ্টায় ঘোরে = 360°/12 = 30°
∴ 13/4 ঘণ্টায় ঘোরে = (30° × 13)/4
= 390°/4
= 97.5°

আবার, মিনিটের কাঁটা 60 মিনিটে 360° ঘোরে।
∴ 1 মিনিটে ঘোরে = 360°/60 = 6°
∴ 15 মিনিটে ঘোরে = 15 × 6° = 90°

∴ ঘড়ির কাঁটা দুটির মধ্যবর্তী কোণ = |97.5° - 90°|

Since a cube has 4 diagonals, we have :
Length of a diagonal
= (12/4)cm = 3cm

Let the length of each edge of the cube be 'a' cm
Then, √3a = 3
or, a = √3

A cube has total 12 edges.
Therefore, total length of the edges of the cube = 12√3 cm

Question: 15% monthly salary increase resulted in a Tk. 14400 per year increase in salary for an employee. What was his monthly salary before the increase?

Solution:
Increasing in 12 months = 14400 taka
So, Increasing in 1 month = (14400/12) = Tk. 1200

Now,
15% of original salary = 1200
1% of original salary = 1200/15
∴ 100% of original salary = (1200 × 100)/15 = 8000 taka.

So the monthly salary before the increase was Tk. 8,000.

Solution: 
৬০০০ টাকা ৪ বছরে ৭২০০ টাকা হয়। 
৪ বছরে সুদ = ৭২০০ - ৬০০০ টাকা 
= ১২০০ টাকা 
১ বছরে সুদ = ১২০০/৪ = ৩০০ টাকা 

১.৫ গুণ বৃদ্ধিতে ১ বছরে সুদ = ৩০০ × ১.৫ টাকা 
= ৪৫০ টাকা 

৫ বছরে সুদ = ৪৫০ × ৫ টাকা 
= ২২৫০ টাকা 

∴ ৫ বছর পর সুদাসলে হবে = ৬০০০ + ২২৫০ টাকা

সমাধান:
দেওয়া আছে,
বইয়ের প্রকৃত মূল্য = 300 টাকা 
বিক্রয়মূল্য = 276 টাকা 
ছাড়ের পরিমাণ = 300 - 276 = 24 টাকা

300 টাকায় ছাড় দেয় = 24 টাকা
1 টাকায় ছাড় দেয় = 24/300 টাকা
∴ 100 টাকায় ছাড় দেয় = (24 × 100)/300 টাকা 
= 8 টাকা বা 8%

Question: The average weight of 40 students in a class is 45 kg. If three students weighing 52 kg, 48 kg, and 50 kg leave the class, what is the new average weight of the remaining students?

Solution:
Total weight = 45 × 40 = 1800 kg

Students leaving = 52 kg + 48 kg + 50 kg = 150 kg
Remaining total weight = 1800 - 150 = 1650 kg

Remaining students = 40 - 3 = 37 students
New average = 1650/37

Question: A trapezium has parallel sides of length 15 m and 35 m. The distance between the sides is 12 m. Calculate the area of the trapezium.

Solution:
Given that,
Parallel sides of trapezium, a = 15 m and b = 35 m
Distance (height) between parallel sides, h = 12 m

We know,
Area of a trapezium =(1/2) × (sum of parallel sides) × height
= (1/2) × (a + b) × h
= (1/2) × (15 + 35) × 12 
= 50 × 6
= 300 m2

So the area of the trapezium is 300 m2.

Solution:
A leap year can have 52 Sundays or 53 Sundays.
In a leap year, there are 366 days out of which there are 52 complete weeks & remaining 2 days.

Now, these two days can be (Sat, Sun) (Sun, Mon) (Mon, Tue) (Tue, Wed) (Wed, Thur) (Thur, Friday) (Friday, Sat).
So there are total 7 cases out of which (Sat, Sun) (Sun, Mon) are two favorable cases.
So, P(53 Sundays) = 2/7

Now,
P(52 Sundays) + P(53 Sundays) = 1
So, P(52 Sundays) = 1 - P(53 Sundays) = 1 - (2/7) = 5/7

Solution:
Let C.P. of 1 litre milk be Tk. 1
Then,
S.P. of 1 litre of mixture = Tk. 1,
Gain = 25%.

C.P. of 1 litre mixture = Tk. (100/125) × 1 = Tk. 4/5

By the rule of alligation, we have:

⇒ Quantity of water : Quantity of milk = (1 - 4/5) : (4/5 - 0) = 1/5 : 4/5 = 1 : 4

Hence, percentage of water in the mixture = (1/5) × 100% = 20%

∴ CP = {100/(100 - 11)} × 178
= (178 × 100)/89 = 200
 
Now CP = Tk. 200 and Profit% = 11%
∴ New SP = {(100 + 11)/100} × 200 = (111 × 200)/100 = 222

Therefore, the article should be sold at Tk. 222

y and z are positive integers greater than zero.
so, y > 0 and z > 0
now here you have to find maximum value of x so value of (y + z) must be minimum.
we know, after zero , 1 is the smallest positive integer
we should take y = z = 1

Here, x + y + z = 9
⇒x = 9 - (y + z)
x = 9 - (1 + 1)
x = 7

Therefore the maximum value of x can take, is 7.

Question: The 2nd and 8th term of an arithmetic progression are 17 and - 1 respectively. What is the 14th term?

Solution:
Let the first term be a and the common difference be d.

We know, 
n term of arithmetic progression = a + (n - 1)d
Then,
2nd term, a + d = 17 ……(i)
8th term, a + 7d = - 1 ……(ii)

Now, Subtract (i) from (ii),
(a + 7d) - (a + d) = - 1 - 17
⇒ 6d = - 18
∴ d = - 3
From (i) we  get,
⇒ a + ( - 3) = 17   ; [d =  - 3]
⇒ a - 3 = 17
∴ a = 20

Now, 14th term = a + 13d
= 20 + 13( - 3)
= 20 - 39
= - 19

So the 14th term of the arithmetic progression is - 19.

Solution:
Where,
length, l = 16 m
breadth, b = 14 m
height, h = 7 m

We know, 
total surface area of a cuboid
= 2(lb + bh + hl)
= [2 (16 × 14 + 14 × 7 + 16 × 7)]
= 2 (224 + 98 + 112)
= (2 × 434)
= 868 m2

So the surface area of the cuboid is 868 square metres.

সমাধান:
বিক্রয় কর ১০% হলে, কর সংযোজন মূল্য = ১০০ + ১০ = ১১০ টাকা

কর সংযোজন মূল্য ১১০ টাকা হলে কর বাদে মূল্য = ১০০ টাকা
∴ কর সংযোজন মূল্য ১ টাকা হলে কর বাদে মূল্য = ১০০/১১০ টাকা
∴ কর সংযোজন মূল্য ৩০৮ টাকা হলে কর বাদে মূল্য = (১০০ × ৩০৮)/১১০ টাকা
= ২৮০ টাকা

১২% লাভে, বিক্রয়মূল্য = ১০০ + ১২ = ১১২ টাকা

বিক্রয়মূল্য ১১২ টাকা হলে ক্রয়মূল্য = ১০০ টাকা
∴ বিক্রয়মূল্য ১ টাকা হলে ক্রয়মূল্য = ১০০/১১২ টাকা
∴ বিক্রয়মূল্য ২৮০ টাকা হলে ক্রয়মূল্য = (১০০ × ২৮০)/১১২ টাকা
= ২৫০ টাকা

Solution: 
Total hours worked by Machine X = 10 days × 6 hours/day = 60 hours.
Rate of X = (6000/60) = 100 items/hour

Total hours worked by Machine Y = 8 days × 10 hours/day = 80 hours.
Rate of Y = (8000/80) = 100 items/hour

Combined rate = Rate of X + Rate of Y = 100 + 100 = 200 items/hour.

So, time required = {24000/(200 × 8)} = 15 days.

Average = 5x + (5x + 5) + (5x + 10)​/3
= (15x + 15)/3

As per question;
⇒ (15x + 15)/3 = 50

(একটি ট্রেন রাজশাহী থেকে ঢাকার দিকে এবং আরেকটি ঢাকা থেকে রাজশাহীর দিকে একই সময়ে যাত্রা শুরু করে। তারা যখন মিলিত হয়, তখন দেখা যায় একটির গন্তব্যে পৌঁছাতে ৯ ঘণ্টা এবং অন্যটির ১৬ ঘণ্টা লাগে। এই অনুযায়ী, তাদের গতি অনুপাতে কত?)

Solution: 
দুটি ট্রেন একই সময়ে যাত্রা শুরু করেছে - একটি রাজশাহী থেকে ঢাকা, অন্যটি ঢাকা থেকে রাজশাহী।

পথে এক সময় তারা একে অপরকে অতিক্রম করেছে।
সেই অতিক্রম করার পর, এক ট্রেন ৯ ঘণ্টা, অন্যটি ১৬ ঘণ্টা সময় নিয়ে নিজ নিজ গন্তব্যে পৌঁছেছে।

ধরা যাক:
ট্রেন A যাচ্ছে রাজশাহী থেকে ঢাকা (গতিবেগ = v1)
ট্রেন B যাচ্ছে ঢাকা থেকে রাজশাহী (গতিবেগ = v2)

তারা যখন মাঝ পথে দেখা করে (ধরা যাক M পয়েন্টে), তখন তারা একই সময় নিয়ে সেই পয়েন্টে পৌঁছায় (যেহেতু একসাথে শুরু করেছে)।

মিলনের পর:

ট্রেন A বাকি পথ যেতে ৯ ঘণ্টা নেয়, দূরত্ব = 9 × v1
ট্রেন B বাকি পথ যেতে ১৬ ঘণ্টা নেয়, দূরত্ব = 16 × v2
এই দূরত্ব দুটি সমান নয়, কিন্তু এদের অনুপাতই বলে দেবে গতির অনুপাত।

দুটি ট্রেন একসাথে শুরু করে এক পয়েন্টে দেখা করলে, যে ট্রেনটি অতিক্রমের পরে কম সময় নেয়, তার গতি বেশি।

গতির অনুপাত নির্ণয়ের সূত্র:
গতির অনুপাত = √(দ্বিতীয় ট্রেনের সময় / প্রথম ট্রেনের সময়)
অর্থাৎ:
v1/v2 = √(16/9) = 4/3

দুটি ট্রেনের গতির অনুপাত = ৪ : ৩

First discount = 40%
After first discount selling price is = 1000 - (40% of 100) = 600

Let the second discount is = x%

ATQ,
600 - (x% of 600) =510
⇒ 600 - 6x = 510
⇒ 6x = 90
⇒ x = 15

Question: An amount of money in invested in a saving account for two years. It increases by Tk. 645 in two years after annual compounding at the rate of 15% per year. What is the amount in Tk. invested initially?

Solution:
Let, the principal be p

ATQ,
p + 645 = p(1 + 15/100)2
⇒ p + 645 = p(1 + 3/20)2
⇒ p + 645 = p(23/20)2
⇒ p + 645 = (529p)/400
⇒ 529p = 400p + 258000
⇒ 129p = 258000
⇒ p = 258000/129
∴ p = 2000

Question: A train 150 meters long takes 40 seconds to cross a 350-meter-long bridge. How much time will the train take to cross a 250-meter-long platform?

Solution:
Length of train = 150 m
Length of bridge = 350 m
∴ Total distance to cross bridge = 150 + 350 = 500 m
Time taken = 40 seconds
∴ Speed of train = Total distance/Time
= 500/40 = 12.5 m/s

Length of platform = 250 m
∴ Total distance to cross platform = 150 + 250 = 400 m

∴ Time taken = Total distance/Speed
= 400/12.5 seconds
= 32 seconds
