Question: By walking at 3/4 of his usual speed, a man reaches his office 20 minutes later than usual. His usual time is:

Solution:
let,
distance y meter
and  speed x meter/min.
usual time taken y/x min

3/4 of his usual speed is 3x/4 meter/min
∴ time taken y/(3x/4) min = (4y)/(3x) min

ATQ,
(4y)/(3x) - (y/x) = 20
⇒ (y/x){(4/3) - 1} = 20
⇒ (y/x)(1/3) = 20
∴ y/x = 60 min

Question: If x = 3 + 2√2, then the value of (√x + 1/√x) is?

Solution:
x = 3 + 2√2
⇒ x = 2 +1 + 2√2
⇒ x = (√2)2 + 2 . √2 . 1 + (1)2
⇒ x = (√2 + 1)2
⇒ √x = √2 + 1
⇒ 1/√x = 1/ (√2 + 1)
⇒ 1/√x =1(√2 - 1)/(√2 + 1)(√2 - 1)
⇒ 1/√x = √2 - 1

∴ √x + 1/√x =√2 + 1 + √2 - 1
∴ √x + 1/√x = 2√2

ব্যাখ্যা
Let the numerator be x.
The denominator of a fraction is 2 more than the numerator. Therefore, denominator = x + 2
Now,
Numerator/Denominator = 8/10
x/(x + 2) = 8/10

The numerator and denominator are increased by 4.

Therefore,
(x + 4)/{(x + 2) + 4} = 8/10
⇒ 10 (x + 4) = 8 ( x + 6)
⇒ 10 x + 40 = 8x + 48
⇒ 2x = 8
⇒ x = 4

Hence, the fraction is = 4/6
= 2/3.

Question: A garrison had foods for a certain number of days. After 10 days, 1/5 of the men desert and it is found that the foods will now last just as long as before. How many long was that?

Solution:
let, initially there be 'x' men having foods for y days
After 1/5 of the men left = x - (x/5) = 4x/5

After 10 days,
x men had foods for (y - 10) days
∴ 1 man had foods for x(y - 10) days
∴  4x/5 men had foods for = {5x(y - 10)}/4x days
= 5(y - 10)/4 days

According to the question,
5(y - 10)/4 = y
⇒ 5y - 50 = 4y
⇒ y = 50

Question: A boat running downstream covers a distance of 24 km in 2 hours while for covering the same distance upstream, it takes 4 hours. What is the speed of the boat in still water?

Solution:
Given,
A boat running downstream covers a distance of 24 km in 2 hours
∴ Rate downstream = Distance/time
= (24/2) km/h
= 12 km/h

It takes 4 hours to cover the same distance upstream,
Rate upstream = Distance/time
= (24/4) km/h
= 6 km/h

∴ Speed in still water = (12 + 6)/2 km/h
= 9 km/h

Question: A man has to go from a port to an island and return. He can row a boat with a speed of 7 km/hr in still water. The speed of the stream is 2 km/hr. If he takes 56 minutes to complete the round trip, find the distance between the port and the island.

Solution:
Speed upstream = 7 - 2 = 5 km/hr 
Speed downstream = 7 + 2 = 9 km/hr 

Let the distance between the port and the island be D km.
Also, we know that Time = Distance / Speed 
⇒ (D/5) + (D/9) = 56/60 
⇒ (14D)/45 = 56/60 
⇒ D = 3 km 

Therefore, the distance between the port and the island = 3 km

Question: After a 10% reduction in the price of cooking oil, a family is able to purchase 4 liters more oil for Tk. 720. What was the original price per liter?

Solution:
Let
Original price of cooking oil = x Tk/liter.
Original quantity = 720/x​ litre

New price = 0.90x Tk/litre
New quantity = 720/0.90x = 720/(9x/10) = (720 × 10)/9x = 800/x​ liters

ATQ,
(800/x​) - (720/x) = 4
⇒ (800 - 720)/x = 4
⇒ 80/x = 4
⇒ x = 80/4
∴ x = 20

 ∴ Original price of cooking oil = 20 Tk/liter.

Question: Ten years ago, the age of mother was three times the age of her son. After ten years, mother’s age will be twice that of his son. Find the ratio of their present ages.

Solution:
10 years ago, age of mother was three times the age of her son.
Say, the age of son was x and mother's age was 3x.
At present:
Mother's age is (3x + 10)
and son’s age is (x + 10)

After ten years:
Mother's age will be (3x + 10) +10
and son’s age will be (x + 10) + 10.

Given that, mother’s age is twice that of son after ten years.
(3x + 10) +10 = 2 [(x + 10) + 10]
(3x + 20) = 2[x + 20]
Solving the equation, we get x = 20
(3x + 10) : (x + 10) = 70 : 30 = 7 : 3.

To find the minimum number of units the factory needs to produce so that each batch size (12, 18, and 30) can be formed exactly, we need to find the least common multiple (LCM) of these batch sizes.

The prime factorization of each batch size is:
12 = 2 × 2 × 3 = 22 × 31

18 = 2 × 3 × 3 = 21 × 32

30 = 2 × 3 × 5 = 21 × 31 × 51

Now,
The highest power of 2 is 22
The highest power of 3 is 32
The highest power of 5 is 51

So, the LCM of 12, 18, and 30 is:
= 22 × 32 × 51
= 4 × 9 × 5
= 180

∴ The minimum number of units the factory needs to produce is 180.

Question: A shopkeeper earns a profit of 12% on selling a book at 10% discount on the printed price. The ratio of the cost price and the printed price of the book is -

Solution: 
ধরি, ক্রয়মূল্য x টাকা 
মুদ্রিত মূল্য y টাকা 

১২% লাভে বিক্রয়মূল্য = x + x এর ১২% 
= x + 0.12x
= 1.12x

১০% ছাড়ে বিক্রয়মূল্য = (100 - 10)% y
= 90% y
= 0.9y 

1.12x = 0.9y
⇒ x/y = 0.9/1.12
= 90/112 [লব ও হরকে ১০০ দ্বারা গুণ করে]
= 45/56

∴ x : y = 45 : 56

Question: The average of 2, 7, 6, and P is 5 and the average of 18, 1, 6, P and Q is 10. What is the value of Q? 

Solution: 
Given that
average of 2, 7, 6, P is 5

Therefore,
5 = (2 + 7 + 6 + P​)/4
⇒ 20 = 15 + P
⇒ P = 20 - 15
∴ P = 5

Therefore,
10 = (18 + 1 + 6 + P + Q​)/5
⇒ 50 = 25 + 5 + Q
⇒ Q = 50 - 30 
∴ Q = 20

Question: If the length of a rectangle is increased by 30% and the width is decreased by 30%, then the area will be-

Solution: 
Let,
The length and breadth be 10 unit each.
∴ Area of rectangle = 10 × 10 = 100 unit2

New length = 10 + 30% of 10 = 10 + 3 unit
= 13 unit

New breadth = 10 - 30% of 10 = 10 - 3 unit
= 7 unit

∴ New area of rectangle = 13 × 7 = 91 unit2
Percentage decrease in area = 100 - 91 = 9 unit2

∴ The decrease percent is 9%.

Question: 3 pumps, working 4 hours a day, can empty a tank in 2 days. How many hours a day must 4 pumps work, to empty the tank in one day?

Solution:
Given that,
3 pumps, working 4 hours a day, can empty a tank in 2 days.
Therefore, it means that:
3 pumps take a total of 8 hours to empty the tank.
Hence, 1 pump will take 8 × 3 = 24 hours

As the number of pumps decreases, the time required increases.
So, if 4 pumps work, the time required decreases.
∴ 24/4 = 6 hours needed to empty the tank in 1 day.

Question: A can do a work in 10 days and B can do the same work in 15 days. If they start working together but stop working after four days, find the fraction of the work that is left.

Solution:
A's one day work = 1/10
B's one day work = 1/15

(A + B)'s one day work = 1/10 + 1/15 = (3 + 2)/30 = 5/30 = 1/6
A and B's four day work = (1/6) × 4 = 2/3

Therefore,the remaining work = 1 - 2/3 = (3 - 2)/3 = 1/3

Question: In a factory, 20 workers can make 20 toys in 10 days working 10 hours per day. Then, in how many days can 25 workers make 30 toys working 20 hours per day?

Solution:
Given:

Number of workers initially = 20
Number of days initially = 10
Hours per day initially = 10
Number of toys initially = 20
Number of workers later = 25
Hours per day later = 20
Number of toys later = 30
Number of days later = ?

∴ (Number of workers initially × Number of days initially × Hours per day initially × Number of toys later)
= (Number of workers later × Number of days later × Hours per day later × Number of toys initially)
⇒ 20 × 10 × 10 × 30 = 25 × (Number of days later) × 20 × 20
⇒ 20 × 10 = 200 → 200 × 10 = 2,000 → 2,000 × 30 = 60,000
⇒ 25 × 20 × 20 = 10,000 × (Number of days later)
⇒ 60,000 = 10,000 × (Number of days later)

∴ Number of days later = 60,000 ÷ 10,000 = 6 days

    Question: A reservoir has two pipes, A and B. A can fill the reservoir 5 hours faster than B. If both together fill the reservoir in 6 hours, the reservoir will be filled by A alone in-

    Solution: 
    Let, A alone can fill the reservoir in x hours 
    B can fill in x + 5 hours 

    Both complete in 1 hour = (1/x) + (1/ x + 5)
    = (2x + 5)/(x2 + 5x)

    Now
    1/{(2x + 5)/(x2 + 5x)} = 1/6
     (x2 + 5x)/(2x + 5) = 6 
    ⇒ x2 + 5x = 12x + 30 
    ⇒ x2 - 7x - 30 = 0
    ⇒ x2 - 10x + 3x - 30 = 0 
    ⇒ x (x - 10) + 3 (x - 10) = 0
    ⇒ (x - 10) (x + 3) = 0 
    ∴ x = 10 or, x = -3 , negative value not possible 

    A alone can fill the reservoir in 10 hours

    Question: Mr. Rahim can complete a task in 12 days, while his daughter can complete the same task in 18 days. How many days will it take for them to finish the work if they work together?

    Solution:
    Given,
    Mr. Rahim can do the work in 12 days
    ∴ in 1 day he can do = 1/12 part

    His daughter can do the work in 18 days
    ∴ in 1 day she can do = 1/18 part

    ∴ in 1 day, working together they can do = (1/12 + 1/18) part
    = (3 + 2)/36 part
    = 5/36 part

    Hence, together they complete 5/36 of the work in 1 day
    ∴ They can complete the whole work in = 36/5 days
    = 7.2 days

    ∴ If they work together, the work will be completed in 7.2 days.

    Question: How many bricks, each measuring 20 cm, 10 cm, and 5 cm, will be needed to construct a wall of 6 m, 4 m, and 10 cm?

    Solution:
    Wall Dimensions,
    Length = 6 m = 600 cm
    Width = 4 m = 400 cm
    Height = 10 cm

    And
    Brick Dimensions,
    Length = 20 cm
    Width = 10 cm
    Height = 5 cm

    So, Volume of the wall = Length × Height × Thickness
    =600 × 400 × 10
    = 2,400,000 cm3
    And,
    Volume of one brick = Length × Width × Height
    = 20 × 10 × 5 = 1000 cm3

    ∴ Number of bricks = Volume of the wall​/Volume of one brick 
    = 2,400,000/1000
    = 2400

    ∴ The number of bricks needed to construct the wall is 2400.

    Question: Rita invested equal amounts at 5% and 7% simple interest for 4 years. If she received total interest of Tk. 1920, what was the amount invested in each scheme?

    Solution:
    Let the amount invested in each scheme = x taka
    So, same amount at 5% and same amount at 7%

    Interest at 5% for 4 years, 
    I1 = (x × 5 × 4)/100
    = 20x/100
    = x/5
    = 0.20x

    And, Interest at 7% for 4 years,
    I2 = (x × 7 × 4)/100
    = 28x/100
    = 0.28x

    Total interest received = I1 + I2
    0.20x + 0.28x = 1920
    ⇒ 0.48x = 1920
    ⇒ x = 1920/0.48
    ⇒ x = 1920 × (100/48)
    ⇒ x = 1920 × (25/12)
    ⇒ x = 160 × 25
    ∴ x = 4000

    So, the amount invested in each scheme Tk. 4000

    Question: A tap can fill a tank in 6 hours. After half the tank is filled, three more similar taps are opened. What is the total time taken to fill the tank completely?

    Solution:
    Time taken by one tap to fill half of the tank = 3 hours

    Partly filling the tank with the four taps in 1 hour = 4 × (1/6) = 2/3

    Remaining part = 1 - (1/2) = 1/2

    ∴ 2/3 : 1/2 :: 1 : x
    ⇒ x = (1/2) × 1 × (3/2)
    ⇒ x = 3/4 hours
    ⇒ x = 45 minutes

    Hence, the total time taken = 3 hours 45 minutes

    Solution:
    এখানে, 3 জন পুরুষ = 9 জন বালক
    ∴ 1 জন পুরুষ = 9/3 = 3 জন বালক

    এখন, 9 জন পুরুষ + 9 জন বালক
    = (9 × 3) জন বালক + 9 জন বালক
    = 27 জন বালক + 9 জন বালক
    = 36 জন বালক

    প্রশ্নমতে,
    9 জন বালক কাজটি করে 36 দিনে
    ∴ 1 জন বালক কাজটি করে (36 × 9) দিনে
    ∴ 36 জন বালক কাজটি করে (36 × 9)/36 দিনে
    = 9 দিনে

    ∴ কাজটি 9 দিনে শেষ হবে।

    = 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
    = 150°/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: Due to 25% fall in the rate of eggs one can buy 2 dozen eggs more than before by investing Tk. 162. The the original rate per dozen of the eggs is?

    Solution:
    25% fall we get 2 dozen eggs extra.

    ∴ 25% = 2 dozen
    100% = 8 dozen
    So, old quantity = 8 - 2 = 6 dozen

    ∴ Rate = 162/6
    = Tk. 27

    Alternate:
    Let the price of eggs one dozen be Tk. 4x
    Price of eggs after fall in rate = 4x × 3/4 = 3x
    According to question
    ⇒ 162 [1/3x - 1/4x] = 2
    ⇒ 162 [(4 - 3)/12x] = 2
    ⇒ 162 = 24x
    ⇒ x = 162/24

    Price of eggs one dozen = 4 × 162/24 = Tk. 27

    ∴ Women who has child = 1/3 of 1/6 = 1/18

    And,
    Total men = 2/3       (∵ 1/3 are women)
    Married man = 3/4 of the total man
    Married man = 3/4 of 2/3 = 1/2
    Man who has a child = 2/3 of a married man

    ∴ Men who has child = 2/3 of 1/2 = 1/3

    Now,
    Men + Women (​​​​having child) = (1/18) + (1/3) = 7/18

    ∴ Part that don't have child = 1 - (7/18) = 11/18

    ∴ 11/18 workers don't have children.

    Question: The sum of present ages of a father and his son is 8 years more than the present age of the mother. The mother is 22 years older than the son. What is the present age of the father?

    Solution:
    Let, the present age of son = x and father = y.
    So, present age of mother = x + 22

    ATQ,
    (y + x) - (x + 22) = 8
    ⇒ y = 8 + 22
    ⇒ y = 30

    So, the present age of the father is 30 years

    A tyre has two punctures. The first puncture alone would have made the tyre flat in 9 minutes and the second alone would have done it in 6 minutes. If air leaks out at a constant rate, how long does it take both the punctures together to make it flat ?
    1. ক) 3(1/5) min
    2. খ) 3(2/5) min
    3. গ) 3(3/5) min
    4. ঘ) 3(4/5) min
    সঠিক উত্তর:
    গ) 3(3/5) min

    1-minute work done by both the punctures = (1/9) + (1/6)
    = (4 + 6)/36
    = 10/36
    = 5/18

    So both punctures will make the type flat in = (18/5) min
    = 3(3/5) min

    Two baskets together have 672 oranges. If one-fifth of the oranges in the first basket be taken to the second basket then, numbers of oranges in both baskets become equal. The number of oranges in the first basket is-
    1. ক) 400
    2. খ) 300
    3. গ) 420
    4. ঘ) 360
    সঠিক উত্তর:
    গ) 420
    উত্তর
    সঠিক উত্তর:
    গ) 420
    ব্যাখ্যা

    Let the number of oranges in first basket be x,
    Number of oranges in second basket = 672 - x
    ATQ, x - x/5 = 672 - x + x/5
    ⇒ 4x/5 = 672 - 4x/5
    ⇒ 4x/5 + 4x/5 = 672
    ⇒ 8x/5 = 672
    ⇒ x = 672× (5/8)
    ⇒ x = 420
    ∴ Number of oranges in first basket = 420.
