A. 130

22. A car goes 15 km on a gallon of octane when it is driven at 50 km/h. When the car is driven at 60 km/h, it only goes 80% as far. How many gallons of octane are needed to travel 200 km if half the distance is traveled at 50 km/h and the rest at 60 km/h?

A. 15

B. 16.67

C. 10.60

D. 14

Answer: 15

Solution:

At 50km/h

15 km needs 1 gallon

So, 100 km needs 100/15 gallon

At 60km/h,

It goes 80% far = 80% of 15 = 12 km

12 km needs 1 gallon

So, 100 km needs 100/12 gallon

So, (100+100) = 200 km needs

= (100/15 + 100/12) gallon

= (400+500)/60 gallon

= 900/60 gallon

= 15 gallon

23. A manufacturer sells three products i.e. A, B and C. Product A cost 200 and sells for 250, Product B cost 150 and sells for 180, Product C cost 100 and sells for 110. On which product, he has maximum percentage of profit?

A. B only

B. A and B both

C. A only

D. C only

Answer: A only

Solution:

Profit from A = 250-200=50tk

Percentage = (50×100)/200=25%

Profit from B= 180-150=30tk

Percentage = (30×100)/150= 20%

Profit from C= 110-100=10tk

Percentage= (10×100)/100=10%

24. A, B and C enter into partnership with investments in the ratio of 5:7: 8. If, at the end of the year A’s share of profit is Tk. 42,360, how much is the total profit?

A. Tk. 169,440

B. Tk. 183,000

C. Tk. 196,700

D. Tk. 168,440

Answer: Tk. 169,440

Solution:

As the profit distributed according to the investment ratio the profit and investment ratio will be equal

Let, A’s profit = 5x tk

5x = 42360

x = 8472

B’s profit = 8472×7= 59304

C’s profit = 8472×8= 67776

Total profit = 43260+59304+67776=169440

25. One third of the faculty members of a department are female. Sixteen of the male teachers are unmarried while 60% of them are married. The total number of faculty members in the department is

A. 72

B. 60

C. 30

D. 90

Answer: 60

Solution:

Let,

Total number = x

Number of female = 1/3 of x = x/3

Number of male = x-x/3 = 2x/3

Married male = 60% of 2x/3 = 2x/5

ATQ,

2x/3 – 2x/5 = 16

Or, 4x/15 = 16

Or, x = 60

26. A wholesaler sells goods to a retailer at a profit of 20%. The retailer sells to the customer, who pays 80% more than the cost of the wholesaler. What is the retailer’s profit?

A. 40%

B. 50%

C. 60%

D. 70%

Answer: 50%

Solution:

Let cost of wholesaler = 100tk

At 20% profit he sells = 120tk = the cost of retailer

Retailer sell it for 80% profit on cost of wholesaler

= 100 + 100×(80/100) = 180 tk

Profit of retailer = 180- 120 = 60 tk

Percentage = (60×100)/120 = 50%

27. If an integer y is subtracted from an integer x, and the result is greater than x, then y must be –

A. Equal to x

Solution:

ATQ,

x-y>x

Or, -y > 0

Or, y < 0

28. A train went 300 km from City X to City Y at an average speed of 100 km/h. At what speed did it travel on the way back if its average speed for the whole trip was 120 km/h?

A. 120 km/h

B. 125 km/h

C. 130 km/h

D. 150 km/h

Answer: 150 km/h

Solution:

Let,

Way back speed = x

ATQ,

2×x×100/(x+100) = 120

Or, 200x/(x+100) = 120

Or, 200x = 120x+12000

Or, 80x = 12000

Or, x= 150

29. If a, b and c are 3 consecutive integers and a >b>c, which of the following has the maximum value?

A. b+(c/a)

B. c+(a/b)

C. c+(b/a)

D. a+(b/c)

Answer: a+(b/c)

Solution:

As a is the greater number, adding a to any fraction of the given choice will have the maximum value.

30. Sam can mow a lawn in 20 min, while Mark takes 10 min longer to mow the same lawn. How long will they take to mow the lawn if they work together?

A. 12 min

B. more than 15 min

C. 15 min

D. 14 min

Answer: 12 min

Solution:

In 1 minute, Sam mows 1/20 of the lawn

In 1 minute, Mark mows 1/(20+10) = 1/30 of the lawn

(1/20 + 1/30) = 5/60=1/12 of the lawn takes 1 minute

So, whole(1) lawn takes 12 minutes

31. If two planes leave the same airport at 1:00 pm, how many km apart will they be at 3:00 pm, if one travels directly north at 150 km/h and the other travels directly west at 200 km/h?

A. 50km

B. 500km

C. 400km

D. 600km

Answer: 500km

Solution:

Difference of time = 3:00 pm – 1:00 pm = 2 hrs

First plane travels in 2 hrs = 2×150=300 km

Second plane travels in 2 hrs = 2×200=400 km

The directions of the planes forms a right angle triangle

So, the direct distance = √(3002 + 4002) = √250000=500 km

32. If an inspector rejects 0.08% of a product as defective, how many units of the product will he examined in order to reject 2?

A. 500

B. 1500

C. 2000

D. 2500

Answer: 2500

Solution:

0.08% product is rejected from = 100

So, 2 product is rejected from = (100 × 2 × 100)/8 = 2500

33. A two-digit number has 3 in its unit digit. The sum of its digits is one seventh of the number itself. What is the number?

A. 53

B. 63

C. 73

D. 83

Answer: 63

Solution:

Let,

The number = 10x + 3

ATQ,

7(x + 3) = 10x + 3

⇒7x + 21 = 10x + 3

⇒21-3 = 10x – 7x

⇒3x = 18

⇒x= 6

The number = 10 × 6 + 3 = 63.

34. A trader market the price of an article 30% above the cost price and gave the buyer 10% discount on marked price, thereby gaining Tk. 340. The cost of the article is?

35. The length and breadth of a square are increased by 40% and 30% respectively. The area of the resulting rectangle exceeds the area of the square by?

A. 62%

B. 42%

C. 82%

D. None

Answer: 82%

Solution:

Let, length is = x so, area is = x2

40% increase in length = x+2x/5 =7x/5

30% increase in breadth = x+3x/10 =13x/10

Area = (7x/5)×( 13x/10) = 91×2/50

Increasing area = (91×2/50)- x2 = 41×2/50

Percentage = {(41×2/50) x2}×100 = (41/50)×100 = 82%

36. There boys have marbles in the ratio of 19:5:3. If the boy with the least number has 9 marbles, how many marbles does the boy with the highest number have?

A. 57

B. 15

C. 76

D. 38

Answer: 57

Solution:

Smaller ratio 3 = 9

So, Smaller ratio 1 = 9/3 = 3

Now,

Highest ratio 19 = 19×3 = 57

37. A circular wheel 28 inches in diameter rotates the same number of inches per second as a circular wheel 35 inches in diameter. If the smaller wheel makes x revolutions per second, how many revolutions per minutes does the larger wheel make in terms of x?

A. 12x

B. 24x

C. 36x

D. 48x

Answer: 48x

Solution:

For smaller wheel,

Circumference = 2×π×28/2 = 28π

Revolve in 1 second = x times

Revolve in 60 seconds = 60x times

So, distance = 28π×60x

For larger wheel,

Circumference = 2×π×35/2 = 35π

Let,

Revolve per minute = n

So, distance = 35πn

Now,

28π×60x = 35πn

Or, n=(28π × 60x)/35π

Or, n= 48x

38. Of two groups of tourists, each has 60 people. If three-fourth (i.e. 75%) of the first group and two-third of the second group board buses to travel to a museum. How many more people of the first group board buses than that of the second group?

A. 3

B. 5

C. 10

D. 15

Answer: 5

Solution:

¾ of first group = ¾ of 60 = 45

2/3 of 2nd group = 2/3 of 60 = 40

Difference = 45-40 = 5

39. Six consecutive whole numbers are given. The sum of the first three numbers is 27. What is the sum of the last three numbers?

A. 30

B. 32

C. 36

D. 38

Answer: 36

Solution:

Let,

Numbers are n, n+1, n+2

ATQ,

n+n+1+n+2 =27
Or, 3n+3=27
Or, 3n=24
Or, n=8
So, the numbers are-8,9,10

Now, the last 3 consecutive numbers are 11,12,13

Sum of them 11+12+13 =36

40. If the length of each of the sides of three square garden’s plots is increased by 50 percent, by what percent is the sum of the areas of the three plots increased?

A. 125%

B. 150%

C. 200%

D. 375%

Answer: 125%

Solution:

Let, the length of each side of the garden = 100

Area = 1002 = 10000

Area of 3 square = 3×10000 = 30000

50% increase of length = 100+100×50/100 = 150

Area = 1502 = 22500

Area of 3 square = 3×22500 = 67500
