Q-1 : A sold a watch to B at a gain of 20% and B sold it to C at a loss of

10%. If C bought the watch for Tk.216, at what price did A purchase
it?
(A) Tk. 200 (B) TK. 216 (C) TK. 250 (D) Tk. 176
Solution :
Applying multiplying factor concept :
10 5
216× 9 × 6 = Tk. 200
Alternate approach :
CP₁ : SP₁ ⇒ 5 : 6 = 25 : 30
CP₂ : SP₂ ⇒ 10 : 9 = 30 : 27
Now , 27 units ≡ Tk. 216 ; Then , 25 units ≡ Tk. 200 [Ans.] – A
Q-2 : A square is inscribed in a circle of diameter 2a and another square
is circumscribing circle. The difference between the areas of outer and

(A) a² (B) 2a² (C) 3a² (D) 4a²
Solution :
The game of mathematics

Area of inner square ⇒ (√2a)² = 2a²

Area of outer square ⇒ (2a)² = 4a²
Therefore , Diff. between outer and inner = (4a² - 2a²) = 2a² [Ans.]-B
Q-3 : The average of the three numbers x, y and z is 45. X is greater
than the average of y and z by 9. The average of y and z is greater than
y by 2. Then the difference of x and z is :
(A) 3 (B) 5 (C) 7 (D) 11
Solution :
y+z
Here , x - =9 ⇒ 2x – y – z = 18 (i)
2
y+z
And , - y = 2 ⇒ y + z – 2y = 4 ⇒ z – y = 4 ⇒ y = z – 4
2
Now , 2x – (z -4) – z = 18 [Form equation (i)]

⇒ 2x – 2z = 14 ⇒ 2×(x – z) = 14 ⇒x–z =7 [Ans.] – C
Q – 4 : A boat travel with a speed of 10 km/hr in still water. If the speed
of the stream is 3 km/hr then find time taken by boat to travel 52 km
downstream :
(A) 4 hours (B) 5 hours (C) 6 hours (D) 7 hours
Solution :
52 52
Therefore , required time ⇒ 10+3 = 13 = 4 hours [Ans.] – A
Q-5 : There are 3 green, 4 orange and 5 white color bulbs in a bag. If a
bulb is picked at random, what is the probability of having either a
green or a white bulb?
(A) 3/4 (B) 2/3 (C) 4/3 (D) 2/9

Solution :
3+5 2
The probability of having either a green or a white ⇒ 3+4+5 = 3 [Ans.] - B
Q-6 : A motor cycle covers 40 km with a speed of 20 km/hr. Find the
speed of the motorcycle for the next 40 km journey so that the average
speed of the whole journey will be 30 km/hr.
(A) 70 km/hr (B) 52.5 km/hr (C) 60 km/hr (D) 60.5 km/hr
Solution :
2×20×S
Here , = 30 ⇒ 40S = 30S + 600 ⇒ S = 60 [Ans.] – C
S+20
Q-7 : With a uniform speed, a car covers a distance in 8 hours. Had the
speed been increased by 4 km/hr, the same distance could have been
covered in 7 hours and 30 minutes. What is the distance covered?
(A) 420 km (B) 480 km (C) 520 km (D) 640 km
Solution :
The ratio of time ⇒ 8 : 7.5 = 16 : 15
The ratio of speed ⇒ 15 : 16 [Time speed inversely proportional]
Now , (16-15) i.e. 1 unit ≡ 4 km/hr. ; Then , 15 units ≡ 60 km/hr.
Therefore , covered distance = (60×8) = 480 km [Ans.] – B
Q-8 : The respective ratio between the speed of a car, a train, and a bus
is 5:9:4. The average speed of the car, bus and train is 72 km/hr
together. What is the average speed of the car and the train together?
(A) 82 km/h (B) 72 km/h (C) 67 km/h (D) 84 km/hr
Solution :

Now , (5+9+4) i.e. 18 units ≡ 3×72 ; Then , (5+9) i.e. 14 units ≡ 168
168
Therefore , Average speed ⇒ = 84 km/hr. [Ans.] – D

Q-9 : A, B and C are partners of a company. During a particular year

A received one-third of the profit. B received one-fourth of the profit
and C received the remaining tk.5000. How much did A receive?
(A) Tk. 5000 (B) Tk 4000 (C) Tk 3000 (D) Tk. 1000
Solution :
Let , The total profit be 12 [LCM of 3 , 4]
Now , 12 – (4+3) i.e. 5 units ≡ Tk. 5000 ; Then , 4 units ≡ Tk. 4000
Q-10 : The average age of a group of 15 employees is 24 years. If 5 more
employees join the group, the average age increases by 2 years. Find
the average age of the new employees.
(A) 35 (B) 30 (C) 24 (D) 32
Solution :
Age of new employer ⇒ (26×20 – 15×24) = 32 years [Ans.] – D
Q-11 : By selling 32 guavas for tk. 30 at the rate of Tk. 1.066 per guava
a man loss 25%. How many guavas should be sold for Tk. 18 to gain
20% of profit in the transaction?
(A) 24 (B) 12 (C) 18 (D) 36
Solution :
Applying multiplying factor concept :
18 4 5
32×32 × 5 × 6 = 12 [Ans.] – B

Q-12 : Rahima can row 16 km/hr in still water. It takes her thrice as
long to row up as to row down the river. Find the difference between
her speed in still water and that of the stream.
(A) 8 km/hr (B) 16 km/hr (C) 24 km/hr (D) 12 km/hr
Solution :
Ratio of time , Downstream : Upstream ⇒ 1 : 3
Ratio of speed , Downstream : Upstream ⇒ 3 : 1
Now , (3+1) i.e. 4 units ≡ 16 km/hr. ; (3-1) i.e. 2 units ≡ 8 km/hr.
Therefore , Difference of speed ⇒ (16 – 8) = 8 km/hr. [Ans.] – A
Q-13 : A train leaves a station A at 7 am and reaches another station B
at 11:00 am. Another train leaves B at 8 am and reaches A at 11:30 am.
The two ruins cross one another at
(A) 8:36 am (B) 8:56 am (C) 9.00 am (D) 9:24 am
Solution :
Here , (11:00 AM – 7 AM) = 4 hours ; (11:30 AM – 7 AM) = 4.5 hours
And , (11:30 AM – 8 AM) = 3.5 hours
4×4.5
Therefore , 7 AM + × 60 = 9 : 24 AM [Ans.] – D
4+3.5
Q-14 : A train 150 m long crosses a milestone in 15 seconds and crosses

another train of the same length travelling in the opposite direction in
12 seconds. The speed of the second train in km/hr is-
(A) 52 km/hr (B) 56 km/hr (C) 54 km/hr (D) 58 km/hr
Solution :

150
Speed of first train ⇒ = 10 m/s
15
150+150 300
Relative speed in opposite direction ⇒ = = 25 m/s
12 12
18
Therefore , Speed of second train ⇒ (25-10)× 5 = 54 km/hr [Ans.] – C
Q-15 : There are 2 numbers in the ratio of 4:5. If 4 is subtracted from
both numbers the ratio becomes 3:4. What will be the ratio if 4 is added
in the both numbers?
(A) 1:2 (B) 2:3 (C) 5:6 (D) 1:4
Solution :
Initially , ratio of number ⇒ 4 : 5
Finally , ratio of number ⇒ 3 : 4 [Here , (4 – 3) = 1 = (5 – 4)]
Now , (4-3) i.e. 1 unit ≡ 4 ; 4 units ≡ 16 ; Again , 5 units ≡ 20

Therefore , required ratio ⇒ (16+4) : (20+4) = 5 : 6 [Ans.] – C
Q-16 : The income of A is 20% higher than that of B. The income of B
is 25% less than C . What percent less is A’s income from C’s income?
(A) 7% (B) 8% (C) 9% (D) 10%
Solution :
A : B ⇒ 6 : 5 = 18 : 15
B : C ⇒ 3 : 4 = 15 : 20
So , A : B : C = 18 : 15 : 20

20−18
Therefore , A less than C i.e. (A-C)% ⇒ × 100 = 10% [Ans.] – D
20
Q-17 : The ratio of two numbers is 7:4. If 8 is added to both the numbers
ratio becomes 13:8. What is the smaller number?
(A) 40 (B) 56 (C) 38 (D) 52
Solution :
Ratio of two numbers ⇒ 7 : 4
Ratio of two numbers ⇒ 13 : 8
Here , (7×8 – 13×7) = 4 ; (13×8 – 8×8) = 40
Now , 4 units ≡ 40 ; Then , 4 (smaller) units ≡ 40 [Ans.] – A
Q-18 : A and B can do a work in 12 days. B can do the same work in
18 days. In how many days A can complete the 2/3 of the same work?
(A) 36 days (B) 24 days (C) 16 days (D) 27 days
Solution :
18×12 2
× 3 = 24 days
18−12
Alternate approach :
Efficiency , A+B : B = 18 : 12 = 3 : 2
2
Now , (3-2)×T = 12×3×3 ⇒ T = 24 days [Ans.] – B
Q-19 : A is twice as good as B and together they finish a piece of work
in 16 days. The number of days taken by A alone to finish the work is :
(A) 20 days (B) 21 days (C) 22 days (D) 24 days
Solution :

Efficiency , A : B = 2 : 1
Now , 2×T = (2+1)×16 ⇒ T = 24 days [Ans.] – D
Q-20 : A box contains 5 pink, 3 green and 2 yellow balls. Three balls
are picked up randomly. What is the probability that none of the ball
drawn is green?
(A) 3/16 (B) 7/24 (C) 5/18 (D) 4/24
Solution :
10×9×8
Possible outcome ⇒ ¹⁰C₃ = = 120
3×2×1
7×6×5
Favourable outcome ⇒ ⁷C₃ = 3×2×1 = 35
35 7
Therefore , required probabilty ⇒ 120 = 24 [Ans.] – B
