Questions (41-60): Read the following questions carefully and choose the right answer.

41. If the numerator of fraction is increased by 200% and the denominator is increased by 350%. The
resultant fraction is 5/12. What was the original fraction?

(A) 5/7

(B) 5/8

(C) 7/32

(D) 11/82

Answer: (B) 5/8

Solution:

Let numerator of the fraction is X and denominator is Y, then fraction will be X/Y.

Numerator increased 200%, so new numerator would be,

[X + (200 of X)/100] = 3X —————————– (1)

New denominator,

[Y + (350Y)/100 ] = 45Y/10 ——————————— (2)

Now, according to question,

3X /(45Y/10) = 5/12

30X / 45Y = 5/12


360X = 225Y

X/Y = 225/360
X/Y = 5/8
So, Original fraction was 5/8.

42. In a mixture, the ratio of the milk and water is 6: 5. When 22 liter mixture is replaced by water,
the ratio becomes 9:13. Find the quantity of water after replacement.

(A) 62 liter

(B) 50 liter

(C) 40 liter

(D) 52 liter

Compiled by AA Page 12
Answer: (D) 52 liter

Solution:

Let milk = 6x, water = 5x

ATQ,

6x – 22 × 6/11 : 5x – 22 × 5/11 + 22 = 9 : 13

Or, 6x – 12 : 5x – 10 + 22 = 9 : 13

Or, 13 (6x – 12) = 9 (5x + 12)

Or, 78x – 156 = 45x + 108

Or, 78x – 45x = 156 + 108

Or, 33x = 264

Or, x = 8

Water after replacement = 5 × 8 – 10 + 22 = 40 + 22 = 52 litre

43. A man covers a total distance of 100 km on bicycle. For the first 2 hours, the speed was 20
km/hr and for the rest of the journey, it came down to 10 km/hr. The average speed will be

(A) 12.5 km/hr

(B) 13 km/hr

(C) 14.5 Km/hr

(D) 20 Km/hr

Answer: (A) 12.5 km/hr

Solution:

Distance covered by man in first 2 hrs = 2×20 = 40 km

Remaining distance = (100 – 40) = 60 km

Time to cover this 60 km with 10 kmh = (60/10)kmh = 6 hrs

Required average = 100/(2+6) = 12.5 kmh

44. A man can reach a certain place in 40 hours. If he reduces his speed by 1/15th, he goes 5 km
less in that time. Find the total distance covered by him.

(A) 60 km.

Compiled by AA Page 13
(B) 85 km.

(C) 52 km.

(D) 75 km

Answer: (D) 75 km

Solution:

Let,

Speed = xkmh

So,

40x – 40x×(14/15) = 10

Or, 40x – 112x/3 = 5

Or, 120x – 112x = 15

Or, x = 15/8

So, distance covered = (15×40)/8 = 75 km

45. A shopkeeper gains 17% after allowing a discount of 10% on the marked price of an article. Find
his profit percent if the article is sold at marked price allowing no discount.

(A) 30%

(B) 37%

(C) 23%

(D) 27%

Answer: (A) 30%

Solution:

Let the cost price = 100

Therefore, Selling price = (100×117)/100=117

Therefore, Marked price = (117×100)/90=130

Therefore, Profit Percentage = {(130−100)/100}×100=30%

46. Alam sold two vehicles for Tk 46000 each. If he gained 10% on the first and lost 10% on
another, then what is his percentage profit or loss in this transaction?

Compiled by AA Page 14
(A) 2% loss

(B) 1% profit

(C) 1% loss

(D) None of these

Answer: (C) 1% loss

Solution:

Let the profit be X% and loss be Y% . So,

Net profit or loss% = X +(-Y) + X×(-Y)/100

(Negative sign denotes that their is a loss)

Their is 10% loss and 10% profit then

Net profit or loss% = 10+(-10)+10×(-10)/100 =10–10–100/100 = 0–1 = -1

( negative sign here shows that there is a net loss )

So the net loss percentage is 1% .

Section A: English Language and Communication

(1-4) Read the passage and answer the question

Birds have evolved many physical attributes that contribute to their flying ability. Wings are important
for adjustable, large hearts and light bones play critical roles. To fly, birds, like airplanes, move air across
their wings. Wings are enlarged so that the air above the wing is forced to move faster than air below the
wing. This creates higher pressure under the wings, called lift, which pushes the bird up. Different wing
types evolved for different ways of flying. Prolonged flight requires long wings and an ability to soar.
Other birds need superior measurability. Finches and … have short, broad wings. Faster birds like hawks,
have built-in spoilers that reduce turbulence while flying. This shows a steeper angle of attack without
stalling. Tails have evolved for specialized use. The tails act like a rudder helping birds steer. Birds brake
by speeding out their tails as they land. This adaptation allows them to make sudden controlled steps on
branches or on prey. Flight takes muscle strength. Birds have specialized hearts that beat much faster than
the human heart and provide necessary oxygen to the muscles. The breast muscle accounts for 15 percent
of the bird’s body weight. On pigeons, it accounts for a third of their total body weight. Birds carry no
excessive baggage. The have hollow feathers and hollow bones with struts inside to maintain strength.
Birds fly to find prey, escape predators and attracts mates in other words to survive.

01.What is the main idea of the passage?

a) wings are the most important attribute of birds

b) Different wing Types evolved for different ways of flight

c) Birds have many specialized features that aid in their survival

d) Birds fly for many reasons

Answer: c) Birds have many specialized features that aid in their survival

02. As per the passage, what causes birds to rise when they start flying?

a) Long wings with hollow feathers

b) Higher air pressure below than above the wings

c) spreading out their tails

d) Superior muscle strength

a) 3

b) 5

c) 7

d) None of these

Answer: b) 5

Solution:

5/3 hrs = (5×60)/3 min = 100 min

In 1 min 4/100 products

In 125 min (4×125)/100 = 5 products

23. The price of lunch for 15 people was Tk 207.00 including 15% service charges. What was the average
price of lunch per person excluding the service charge?

a) Tk 11.73

b) Tk 12.00

c) Tk 13.80

d) Tk 15.87

Answer: b) Tk 12.00

Solution:

Including 15% service charge,

If price is 115, real price is 100 tk

If price is 1, real price is 100/115 tk

If price is 207, real price is (100×207)/115 = 180 tk

So, total price excluding service charge = 180 tk

So, average price = 180/15 = 12 tk

26. An item was sold at 6% profit. If the cost was 4% less and the selling price was Tk 4 more, the trader
would have made a profit of 12.5%. What was the cost of the item?

a) Tk 180

b) Tk 200

c) Tk 250

d) Tk 275

Answer: b) Tk 200
Compiled by AA Page 8
Solution:

At 6% profit, selling price = 106

At 4% less,=96 tk, and earn 12.5% profit

so, selling price =96 + 96×12.5%= 108

So at 4% less excess profit is = 108-106=2

When earing 2 tk more the cost of the item is 100 tk

When earing 1 tk more the cost of the item is 100/2 tk

When earing 4 tk more the cost of the item is (100×4)/2 = 200 tk

27. What is 10% of y/3 if 2y/3 is 10% of 400?

a) 2

b) 4

c) 6

d) None of these

Answer: a) 2

Solution:

2y/3 = 10% of 400

Or, y= 60

Now,

10% of y/3 = (10/100)×60/3 = 2

the original amount?

a) 15%

b) 18%

c) 20%

d) 25%

Answer: c) 20%
Compiled by AA Page 9
Solution:

Let increase ( in % ) in salary be denoted by A and decrease in salary denoted by B.

Change in salary given by:

A + B + AB/100

25 – B + (-25B)/100 = 0

Or, B + 0.25B = 25

Or, B = 25/1.25 = 20%

Negative sign indicates DECREASE in salary.

47. A company is considering changing its policy concerning daily working hours. Currently, this
company requires all employees to arrive at work at 8 a.m. The proposed policy would permit each
employee to decide when to arrive from as early as 6 a.m. to as late as 11 a.m. The adoption of this policy
would be most likely to decrease employees’ productivity if the employees job functions required them
to-

a) work without interruption from other employees

b) consult at least once a day with employees from other companies

c) submit their work for a supervisors’ eventual approval

d) interact frequently with each other throughout the entire workday

Answer: d) interact with each other throughout the entire workday

Solution:

a) work without interruption from other employees.

PROBLEM: The time people come in should not have any effect on whether people get interrupted.

b) consult at least once a day with employees from other companies.

Compiled by AA Page 17
PROBLEM: Consulting with other companies once a day should be easy, as everyone will still be there
for at least 6 hours of a typical work day.

c) submit their work for a supervisor’s eventual approval.

PROBLEM: Notice the word “eventual”. If this implied that the supervisor need to sign off on
everybody’s work THAT DAY, this might be the correct answer. But the implication here is that the
supervisor could “eventually” approve it, which doesn’t link it to any specific time.

d) interact with each other throughout the entire workday

ANSWER: Contrast with C. In this case, they use the word “entire”. Well, obviously this is going to get
in the way of interaction through the “entire” work day. This question really does revolve around the use
of the qualifiers “eventual” and “Entire”.

48. While many people think of genetic manipulation of food crops as being aimed at developing larger
and larger plant varieties, some plant breeders have in fact concentrated on discovering or producing
dwarf varieties, which are roughly half as tall as normal varieties.

Which of the following would, if true, most help to explain the strategy of the plant breeders referred to
above?

a) Plant varieties used as food by some are used as ornamentals by others.

b) The wholesale prices of a given crop decrease as the supply of it increases.

c) Crops once produced exclusively for human consumption are often now used for animal feed.

d) Short plants are less vulnerable to strong wind and heavy rains.

Answer: d) Short plants are less vulnerable to strong wind and heavy rains.

Solution:

Unstated Premise of the argument: It is beneficial to produce dwarf varieties

Conclusion of the argument: “some plant breeders have in fact concentrated on discovering or producing
dwarf varieties,”

Explaining this strategy is the same as strengthening the argument.

D is the answer because it directly shows the benefit of the dwarf varieties which is that of reducing the
wastage. B doesn’t conclusively show that dwarf varieties increase the supply of a crop.

49. A major network news organization experienced a drop in viewership in the week following the airing
of a controversial report on the economy. The network also received a very large number of complaints
regarding the report. The network, however, maintains that negative reactions to the report had nothing to
do with its loss of viewers.

Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the network’s position?

Compiled by AA Page 18
a) The other major network news organizations reported similar reductions in viewership during the same
week.

b) The viewers who registered complaints with the network were regular viewers of the news
organization’s programs.

c) Major network news organizations publicly attribute drops in viewership to their own reports only
when they receive complaints about those reports.

d) Most network news viewers rely on network news broadcasts as their primary source of information
regarding the economy.

Answer: a) The other major network news organizations reported similar reductions in viewership during
the same week.

Solution:

It says that other network had similar decline in viewership which could mean there were other probable
causes (holidays, power outage etc.)

c) Cabinetmakers should be more concerned with the practical utility of their products than they currently
are.

d) An object is not an art object if its maker pays attention to the objects practical utility.

Answer: d) An object is not an art object if its maker pays attention to the objects practical utility.

Solution:

Premise :Since furniture must be useful, cabinetmakers must exercise their craft with an eye to the
practical utility of their product.

Conclusion :cabinetmaking is not art.

a) Some furniture is made to be placed in museums, where it will not be used by anyone. – not a good
assumption to conclude that cabinetmaking is not art

b) Some cabinetmakers are more concerned than others with the practical utility of the products they
produce. – opposite answer , actually weakens the conclusion

Compiled by AA Page 19
c) Cabinetmakers should be more concerned with the practical utility of their products than they currently
are.

Then, 4 yrs interest = (100/2)×4 = 200 tk

So, capital = 600 – 200 = 400 tk

২১। A man buys doughnuts at the rate of Tk 35 per 100 piece and sells them at Tk 7.20 per dozen. If
the profit is Tk30, how many doughnuts did he buy?

(ক) ৬০

(খ) ১২০

(গ) ১৮০

(ঘ) ২১০

Answer: (খ) ১২০

Solution:

Cost of 100 piece = 35 tk

Cost of 12 piece = (35/100)×12 = 4.2

Profit = 7.2 – 4.2 = 3 tk.

3 tk profit is incurred by 12 piece

1 tk profit is incurred by 12/3 piece

So, 30 tk profit is incurred by (12/3)×30 = 120 piece

২২।A man can do a piece of work in 5 days, but with the help of his son, he can do it in 3 days. In

(খ) ৭(১/২) িদন

(গ) ৭ িদন

(ঘ) ৮ িদন

Answer: (খ) ৭(১/২) িদন

Solution:

Man’s 1 day’s work = 1/5

Man’s and son’s 1 day’s work = 1/3

So, Son’s 1 day’s work = (1/3 – 1/5) = 2/15

Compiled by AA Page 9
So, the son needs 15/2 = 7(1/2) days to do the whole work.
