• A makes an article for TK.120 and sells it to B at a profit of 25% .B sells it to C who sells it for TK.198 making a profit of 10%. What profit percent did B make?

Solution:
25% profit 
A's Selling price=125% of 120
=150Tk
=B'Cost price

10% Profit
C's Sp=110 TK 
SP 110 TK Then CP=100 tk
SP 198 TK Then CP=[100*198]/110
= 180 Tk
=B's Selling Price

So B profit =[(180-150)/150]*100 =20%
Answer:20%

• A sum of TK.600 amounts to TK.720 in 4 years at simple interest. What will it amount to if the rate of interest is increased by 2% ?[Difficult]

Solution:
Let
Rate of interest=r%
We know
P=100*a/100+(r*t)
Or, 600=(100*720)/[100+(4*r)]

Or, r =5 
Rate increased by 2%=(5+2)=7%
Again we know
I=Prn
Or, I=(600*7*4)/100
Or, I =168 Tk 
So Amount=(600+168)=768 Tk
Answer:768 Tk

Answer:8

 

 

• A sum of money invested at compound interest amounts to Tk 4624 in 2 years and to Tk 4913 in 3 years .The sum of money is.

Solution:
Simple interest(3-2)=1 year
=(4913-4624)=289 Tk
SO,
Rate=[(100*289)/(4624*1)]
=25/4 or 6.25%
Let,
Sum of money be=x
Now,
X(1+25/4*100)^2=4624
Or, X=4096 Tk
Answer:4096 Tk

 

 

• If 75% of a number is added to 75. then the result is the number itself .The number is

• A rectangular field be fenced on three sides leaving a side of 20 feet uncovered.if the area of the field is 680 square feet .how many feet of fencing will be required?

Solution:
We know
Length * Breadth = Area
=> 20 * Breadth = 680
=> Breadth = 34 feet
Area to be fenced
= 2B + L
= 2*34 + 20
= 88 feet
Answer:88 feet

 

• Two pipes A and B can fill a cistern in 12 minutes and 15 minutes respectively while a third pipe C can empty the full tank in 6 minutes .A and B are kept open for 5 minutes in the beginning and then C is also open. In what time is the cistern emptied -

Solution:
Part filled in 5 min
= 5 * (1/12 + 1/15)
= 5 * 9/60 
= 3/4
Part emptied in 1 min when all the pipes are opened 
= 1/6 - (1/12 + 1/15) 
= 1/60
Now, 
1/60 part is emptied in 1min
3/4 part will be emptied in
( 60 * 3/4 )= 45 min
Answer:45 minutes

 

• The least number which is a perfect square and is divisible by each of the number is 16,20 and 24 is-

Solution:
LCM of 16,20,24 is =240
Factors of 240 are 
=2*2*2*2*3*5
Hence to make 240 a perfect square we need to multiply by 5×3 as they are not in pair.
=240×5×3
=240×5×3
=3600(Answer)

 

• Gold is 19 times as heavy as water and copper is 9 times as heavy as water in what ratio should this be mixed to get an alloy r 15 times as heavy as water :

Solution:
Let,
The mass of 1 volume unit of water be 1
Then 1 volume unit of gold has mass 19, 
and 
1volume unit of copper has mass 9.
Now let g be the volume of gold used, and let c be the volume of copper. The total mass divided by the total volume is the density.
(19g + 9c)/(g + c) = 15
19g + 9c = 15g + 15c
4g = 6c
2g = 3c
g/c = 3/2
The volume ratio is 3:2.

 

• The smallest prime number is-

Ans:2

 

• X can do a piece of work in 40 days he works at it for 8 days and then Y finished it in 16 days. How long will they take together take to complete the work

Solution:
Work done by X in 8 days
=(1/40*8)
=1/5
Remaining work
=(1-1/5)
=4/5 portion
Now,
4/5 portion work is done by Y in 16
Whole work Y done
=(16*5/4)
=20 days
Both X & Y 1 days work
=(1/40 + 1/20)
=3/40 
Hence, X and Y will together complete in=40/3 or 13.33 days
Answer:13.33 days

 

• In a 300 m race A beats B by 22.5 metre or 6 seconds. B's time over the course is 

Solution:
B runs 22.5 m in 6 seconds
B runs 300 m in (6×300)/22.5 
= 80 seconds
B's time over the course = 80 seconds
Answer:80 second

 

• if the mean of 5 observations X, X + 2 ,X + 4, x + 6 and X + 8 is 11 then the mean of the last 3 observations is-

Solution:
First, you need to solve for x:
(x + x + 2 + x + 4 + x + 6 + x + 8) / 5 = 11
x + x + 2 + x + 4 + x + 6 + x + 8 = 55
5x + 20 = 55
5x = 35
x = 7
Now, substitute for x in each of the last three terms:
x + 4 + x + 6 + x + 8 = (7 + 4) + (7 + 6) + (7 + 8) = (11) + (13) + (15) = 39 / 3 = 13
The mean is 13.

 

• A,B,C started business with their investment in the ratio 1 :3 :5 .After 4 month A invested the same amount as before and B as well as C withdrew half of their investment .The ratio of their profit at the end of the year is-

Solution:
Let 
Their initial investments be x, 3x and 5x respectively
Then
A:B:C
=(x*4+2x*8):(3x*4+3x/2*8):(5x*4+5x/2*8)
=20x:24x:40x
=5:6:10(Answer)

√(√176 + √2401) is equal to-

• 49 pumps can empty a reservoir n 6.5 days, working 8 hours a day . If 196 pumps are used for 5 hours each day ,then the same work will be completed in-

Solution:
Easy solution
(M1*T1)/W1=(M2*T2)/W2
Or,(49*6.5*8)/1=196*5*T2/1
Or, T2=13/5 or 2.6 days
Answer:13/5 days
