Question: A is thrice as good a workman as B and so takes 40 days less than B for doing a job. The time in which they can do the job together is - 

Solution:
Let A alone takes x days 
and B alone takes 3x days to complete the job.

ATQ,
3x - x = 40
⇒ 2x = 40
⇒ x = 20

So, A alone takes 20 days and B alone takes 3 × 20 = 60 days to complete the job.

(A + B)'s 1 days work = (1/20 + 1/60) = 1/15 part

∴ A and B together can do the work in 15 days.

প্রশ্ন: ৮ জন ছাত্রের গড় বয়স ২০ বছর। প্রথম ২ জন ছাত্রের গড় বয়স ১৯ বছর এবং পরবর্তী ৩ জন ছাত্রের গড় বয়স ২১ বছর। যদি ৬ষ্ঠ ছাত্রের বয়স ৭ম ছাত্রের চেয়ে ২ বছর কম এবং ৮ম ছাত্রের চেয়ে ৩ বছর কম হয়, তবে ৮ম ছাত্রের বয়স কত?

সমাধান: 
৮ জনের গড় বয়স = ২০ বছর
∴৮ জনের মোট বয়স = ৮ × ২০ = ১৬০ বছর

প্রথম ২ জন ছাত্রের গড় বয়স ১৯ বছর
∴প্রথম ২ জনের মোট বয়স = ২ × ১৯ = ৩৮ বছর

পরবর্তী ৩ জন ছাত্রের গড় বয়স ২১ বছর
∴ পরবর্তী ৩ জনের মোট বয়স = ৩ × ২১ = ৬৩ বছর

ধরি, ৬ষ্ঠ ছাত্রের বয়স = x বছর
∴ ৭ম ছাত্রের বয়স = x + ২ বছর
∴ ৮ম ছাত্রের বয়স = x + ৩ বছর

প্রশ্নমতে,
মোট বয়স = প্রথম ৫ জনের বয়স + শেষ ৩ জনের বয়স
⇒ ১৬০ = ৩৮ + ৬৩ + x + (x + ২) + (x + ৩)
⇒ ১৬০ =  ১০১ + ৩x + ৫
⇒ ৩x + ১০৬ = ১৬০
⇒ ৩x = ১৬০ - ১০৬
⇒ ৩x = ৫৪
∴ x = ১৮

∴ ৮ম ছাত্রের বয়স = x + ৩ বছর
= ১৮ + ৩ = ২১ বছর

Let
S be the sample space 
E be the event of selecting 1 girl and 2 boys.

Then, n(S) = Number ways of selecting 3 students out of 25 = 25C3  = 2300
Number ways of selecting 1 girl out of 10 girls and 2 boys out of 15 boys
n(E) = (10C1​×15C2​)= 10 × 105 = 1050

Hence the probability that 1 girl and 2 boys are selected, is,
P(E) =1050/2300
       = 21/46

যেহেতু পুলিশ ও চোর একই দিকে দৌড়াচ্ছে, তাই তাদের আপেক্ষিক গতিবেগ (relative speed) হবে তাদের গতিবেগের পার্থক্য।
∴ আপেক্ষিক গতিবেগ = (12 - 10) কিমি/ঘন্টা
= 2 কিমি/ঘন্টা।
= (2 × 1000)/60 মিটার/মিনিট
= 200/6 মিটার/মিনিট

6 মিনিটে পুলিশ চোরের থেকে যে দূরত্ব কমিয়ে আনবে, তা হলো:
অতিক্রান্ত দূরত্ব = আপেক্ষিক গতিবেগ × সময়
= (200/6)× 6 
= 200 মিটার

সুতরাং, 6 মিনিট পরে তাদের মধ্যে অবশিষ্ট দূরত্ব = প্রাথমিক দূরত্ব - অতিক্রান্ত দূরত্ব
= 300 মিটার - 200 মিটার
= 100 মিটার

Question: An employee’s monthly salary was Tk. 12,000 and his monthly expenditure was Tk. 8,000. The next year, his salary increased by 25% and his expenditure increased by 10%. Find the difference of his savings.

Solution:
Savings before increased income = Tk. (12000 - 8000)
= Tk. 4000

New salary = 125% of 12000 = Tk. (125/100) × 12000
= Tk. 15000

New expenditure = 110% of 8000 = Tk. (110/100) × 8000
= Tk. 8800

Saving after Increased income = Tk. (15000 - 8800)
= Tk. 6200

So the difference of his savings = Tk. (6200 - 4000)
= Tk. 2200

Question: A pole is broken such that the broken part makes an angle of 45° with the ground and touches it at a point 10 meters from the base. What is the length of the broken part?

Solution:

To find the length of the broken part of the pole, we can model this as a right-angled triangle:

The broken part of the pole is the hypotenuse.
The horizontal distance from the base of the pole to where the top touches the ground is 10 meters.
The angle between the broken part and the ground is 45°.
let the hypotenuse = x 

Using the cosine function:
cos(45°) = Adjacent(base)/hypotenuse
Or, 1/√2 = 10/x
Or, x = 10√2

Solution:

2x + y = 15..............(1)
2y + z = 25 ..............(2)
2z + x = 26..............(3)

(1) + (2) + (3)⇒
2x + y  + 2y + z + 2z + x = 15 + 25 + 26
3x + 3y + 3z = 66
3(x + y + z) = 66
x + y + z = 22..................(4)

From (2)
2y + z = 25
2y = 25 - z
y = (25 - z)/2

From (3)
2z + x = 26
x = 26 - 2z

From (4)
x + y + z = 22
26 - 2z + {(25 - z)/2} + z = 22

Question: Seventy-two percent of a number is 30 less than three-fourths of that number. What is the number?

Solution:
Let, the number = x.

ATQ,
72% of x = (3/4) of x - 30
⇒ 72x/100 = (3x/4) - 30
⇒ 18x/25 = (3x/4) - 30
⇒ (3x/4) - (18x/25) = 30
⇒ (75x - 72x)/100 = 30

Question: You visit a fruit market that has 10 different types of fruits. But the Pineapple and Durian are too spiky and smelly for your taste, so you decide to never choose them. You want to make a fruit basket with 6 different fruits from the ones you like. How many ways can you make your basket?

Solution:
Number of different types of fruits =10
Number of fruits available to pick from = 10 - 2 = 8
You are choosing 6 different fruits out of 8.

∴ Number of ways = 8C6
=8!/6!(8 - 6)!
= (8 × 7 × 6!)/(6! × 2!)

Question: From a pack of cards two cards are drawn one after the other, with replacement. The probability that the first is a red card and the second is a king is -

Solution: 
Total cards in a pack = 52
Red cards = 26 (13 hearts + 13 diamonds)
Kings = 4 (2 red, 2 black)
Red kings = 2

Now,
Probability of first card being red,
∴ P(red) = 26/52 = 1/2

And,
Probability of second card being a king (after replacement),
∴ P(king) = 4/52 = 1/13

∴ P(first red and second king) = P(first red) × P(second king) = (1/2) × (1/13) = 1/26

Question: A person buys certain number of marbles at 20 per taka and an equal number at 30 per taka. He mixes them and sells them at 25 per taka. His gain or loss in the transaction is-

Solution:
Cost price of a each marble at 20 per Tk. = Tk. 1/20
Cost price of a each marble at 30 per Tk. = Tk. 1/30
∴ Average cost of marble = {(1/20) + (1/30)}/2
= (3 + 2)/(2 × 60)
= 5/120
= 1/24

Selling price of mixed marble = Tk. 1/25 

∴  Loss = (1/24) - (1/25) = 1/600
Cost price 1/24 then loss Tk. 1/600
Cost price 1 then loss Tk. (1/600)/(1/24)
∴ Cost price 1 then loss Tk. {(1/600)/(1/24)} × 100
= 4%

∴ There is loss of 4%

Question: If m2 + (1/m2) = 47, what is the value of m + (1/m)? 

Solution: 
m2 + (1/m2) = 47
⇒ (m + 1/m)2 - 2 . m. (1/m) = 47 
⇒ (m + 1/m)2 - 2 = 47 
⇒ (m + 1/m)2 = 47 + 2 = 49 
∴ (m + 1/m) = √49 = 7

Solution:
There are two independent alphabetical series here.

First series (first two letters as a pair):
Each pair advances by +2 in the alphabet for each letter :
A (+2) → C (+2) → E (+2) → G (+2) → I (+2) → K
C (+2) → E (+2) → G (+2) → I (+2) → K (+2) → M
∴ (AC, CE, EG, GI, IK, and KM).

Second series (third letter):
This is a reverse alphabetical sequence (decreasing by 1).
Z (-1) → Y (-1) → X (-1) → W (-1) → V (-1) → U
∴ Z, Y, X, W, V, U.

So the missing term after GIW is IKV.

Question:  The average of 7 consecutive numbers is a. If the next two numbers are included, the average will be-

Answer:
let first number is n
so, the numbers are n, n+1, n+2,......, n+6
(n + n + 1 + .... + n + 6)/7 = a
⇒ 7n + (1 + 2 + 3 +....+ 6) = 7a
⇒ 7n + (6 × 7)/2 = 7a
⇒ 7n + 21 = 7a
⇒ 7n = 7a - 21
⇒ n = (7a - 21)/7
∴ n = 7(a - 3)/7 = a - 3

If the next two numbers are included, the average will be
= (n + n + 1 + .... + n + 8)/9
= {9n +(1 + 2 + 3 +.....+8)}/9
= (9n + 36)/9
= n + 4
= a - 3 + 4
= a + 1

So, the average will increase by 1

Question: While working 8 hours a day, A alone can complete a piece of work in 8 days and B alone in 10 days. In what time would they complete it together, 5 hours a day?

Solution: 
A can complete the work in 8 × 8 = 64 hours
1 hour's work of A = 1/64

B can complete the work in 10 × 8 = 80 hours
1 hour's work of B = 1/80

(A + B)'s 1 hour's work

সুতরাং, ইনলেট পাইপ দ্বারা ১ ঘণ্টায় নেট পূর্ণ হয় = ১/৫ - ১/১৫ অংশ
= (৩ - ১)/১৫ অংশ
= ২/১৫ অংশ

ইনলেট পাইপ দ্বারা ২/১৫ অংশ পূর্ণ হয় ১ ঘণ্টায়
ইনলেট পাইপ দ্বারা ১ অংশ পূর্ণ হয় ১৫/২ ঘণ্টায়

এখন, ১৫/২ ঘণ্টা = (১৫/২) × ৬০ মিনিট = ৪৫০ মিনিট

আবার,
১ মিনিটে পূর্ণ হয় ৪ লিটার
৪৫০ মিনিটে পূর্ণ হয় ৪ × ৪৫০ লিটার

Solution:
2টা 30 মিনিট = 2 + (30/60) ঘন্টা
= 2 + 1/2 = 5/2 ঘন্টা

আমরা জানি,
ঘণ্টার কাঁটা 12 ঘণ্টায় 360° ঘোরে।
∴ 1 ঘণ্টায় ঘোরে = 360°/12 = 30°
∴ 5/2 ঘণ্টায় ঘোরে = (30° × 5)/2
= 75°

আবার,
মিনিটের কাঁটা 60 মিনিটে 360° ঘোরে।
∴ 1 মিনিটে ঘোরে = 360°/60 = 6°
∴ 30 মিনিটে ঘোরে = 30 × 6° = 180°

∴ ঘড়ির কাঁটা দুটির মধ্যবর্তী কোণ = |180° - 75°| = 105°

Question: What is the remainder when 337 is divided by 10?

Solution:
When dividing a positive integer by 10, the remainder is always the units digit of that integer. For instance, 123 divided by 10 yields the remainder of 3. Hence, essentially we need to find the units digit of 337.
 
For that,
we can use the cyclicity of 3 in positive integer power, which is four, meaning that the units digit of 3 in positive integer power repeats in blocks of four {3, 9, 7, 1}{3, 9, 7, 1}...
31 = 3
32 = 9
33 = 27
34 = 81
35 = 243
...

The power, 37, is 1 greater than a multiple of 4, so the units digit of 337 will be the first number in the cyclicity block, which is 3, giving the remainder of 3 when divided by 10.

Question: A cistern can be filled by two pipes in 20 and 30 min respectively. Both pipes being open, when must the first pipe be turned off so that the cistern may be filled in 10 min more?

Solution: 
In 1 min both pipes can fill = (1/20) + (1/30)
= (3 + 2)/60
=5/60
= 1/12
In 10 min second pipe can fill = (1/30) × 10 = 1/3 part

Part of cistern filled by both the pipes = 1 - 1/3
= (3 - 1)/3
= 2/3

1/12 part is filled in 1 min
∴ 2/3 part will be filled in (12 × 2)/3 = 8 min

Hence, first pipe should be turned off after 8 min.

We are given that,
age of mother 10 years ago was 3 times the age of her son
So,
let the age of the son be x and as the mother's age is 3 times the age of her son, let it be 3x, three years ago.
At present,
Mother's age will be (3x + 10) and son's age will be (x + 10)
After 10 years,
Mother's age will be (3x + 10) +10 and son’s age will be (x + 10) + 10

Mother's age is twice that of son
(3x + 10) +10 = 2 [(x + 10) + 10]
(3x + 20) = 2[x + 20]
Solving the equation, we get x = 20
We are asked to find the present ratio.
(3x + 10) : (x + 10) = 70 : 30
(3x + 10) : (x + 10) = 7 : 3.

Solution:
Pervez can complete the work in 20 days
Sunny can complete the same job in 15 days
Let the total work = LCM of both
Therefore, the LCM of 20 and 15 is 60, that means total work = 60 units
Now, Pervez's one-day work efficiency = 60/20 = 3 units
Sunny's one-day work efficiency = 60/15 = 4 units
ATQ,
(Pervez + Sunny) together works for 6 days
That means (Pervez+Sunny) have done 7 × 6 = 42 units work in 6 days
Now, the remaining work will be 60 - 42 = 18 units, and it will finish in 4 days.
Now, Sunny is replaced with Ashu:
So, per days work required to be finished = 18 units / 4 days = 4.5 units
But, we know that Pervez's one-day work = 3 units, so Ashu's one-day work = 4.5 - 3 = 1.5 units
Therefore, Ashu alone can finish the total work in 60 units /1.5 days = 40 days

Question: A room has dimensions 6 m × 4 m × 3 m (length × width × height). If only the walls and the ceiling are to be painted, what is the total area to be painted?

Solution:
Here,
Length, L = 6 m
Width, W = 4 m
Height, H = 3 m

We know,
Wall Area = 2 × (L + W) × H
= 2 × (6 + 4) × 3
= 2 × 10 × 3
= 60 m2

And,
Ceiling is just the top surface of the floor (rectangle).
Ceiling Area = L × W = 6 × 4 = 24 m2

∴ Total Area = Wall Area + Ceiling Area = (60 + 24) m2​ = 84m2

Question: The banker's gain on a sum due 2 years hence at 10% per annum is 320 Tk. The banker's discount is:

Solution: 
Here,
Banker’s Gain (B.G) = 320 Tk
Rate (R) = 10% 
Time (T) = 2 years

We know,
True Discount (T.D) = B.G/(R × T)
= (320 × 100)/(10 × 2)
= 3200/2
= 1600 Tk

∴  Banker’s Discount (B.D) = 1600 + 320
= 1920 Tk

Question: A train with a length of 350 m long, takes 40 seconds to cross a 450m long bridge. How much time will the train take to cross a 550 m long platform?

Solution:
Length of the train = 350 m
Length of the bridge = 450 m
∴ Total length = (450 + 350) m
= 800m

∴ Speed of the train = 800/40 m/sec
= 20 m/sec

Now total length of the train and new bridge = (550 + 350) m
= 900 m

∴ Time taken = (900/20) sec
= 45 sec

Question: Six bells commence tolling together and toll at intervals of 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, and 15 seconds respectively. In 45 minutes, how many times do they toll together?

Solution:
3 = 31
5 = 51
6 = 2 × 3
9 = 32
10 = 2 × 5
15 = 3 × 5

∴ ল.সা.গু. = 21 × 32 × 51 = 2 × 9 × 5 = 90।

সুতরাং, ঘণ্টাগুলো প্রতি 90 সেকেন্ড পর পর একসাথে বাজবে।

এখন, 45 মিনিট = 45 × 60 = 2700 সেকেন্ড।

মোট 2700 সেকেন্ডে ঘণ্টাগুলো যতবার একসাথে বাজবে তার সংখ্যা হলো = 2700/90 = 30 বার।

যেহেতু ঘণ্টাগুলো প্রথমে একবার একসাথে বাজা শুরু করেছিল, তাই মোট সংখ্যাটি হবে 30 এর সাথে সেই প্রথমবারটি যোগ করে।
∴ মোট সংখ্যা = 30 + 1 = 31 বার।

সুতরাং, 45 মিনিটে ঘণ্টাগুলো মোট 31 বার একসাথে বাজবে।
