Three angles of a triangle are in proportion 5:6:7. Then what is the difference in degrees between the biggest

and the smallest angles?

(a) 10° (b) 20° (c) 25° (d) 30°

Answer: 20°

Solution:

Sum of 3 angles of a triangle = 180°

Sum of ratio = 5+6+7 = 18

So, the larger angle = 180° × 7/18 = 70°

And, the smaller angle = 180° × 5/18 = 50°

Difference = 70° – 50° = 20°

Triangle ABC has the following vertices: A (1,0), B (5,0) and C (3.4). Which of the following is true-

(a) AB=BC (b) CA=CB (c) AB=AC (d) AC<BC

Answer: CA=CB

Solution:

Distance of (x1,y1) & (x2,y2) = √{(x1 – x2)2 + (y1 – y2)2}

AB/BA = √{(1 – 5)2 + (0 – 0)2 }= √(-4)2 = √16 = 4

BC/CB = √{(5 – 3)2 + (0 – 4)2 }= √22 + 16 = √20 = 2√5

AC/CA=√{(1-3)2 + (0 – 4)2 }= √4 + 16 =√20 = 2√5

If a>b>l, then which of the following is true?

(a) (a-b)<0 (b) a2<ab (c) (b+a)>2a (d) a2>b2

Answer: a2>b2

A box contains 12 poles and 7 pieces of net. Each piece of net weighs 0.2 gm: each pole weighs 1.1gm. The

box and its contents together weigh 16.25 gm. How much does the empty box weigh?

(a) 1.2 gm (b) 1.65 gm (c) 2.75 gm (d) 6.15 gm

Answer: 1.65 gm

Solution:

Weight of 7 nets = (7×0.2)gm =1.4gm

Weight of 12 poles = (12×1.1)gm = 13.2gm

Total weight of net and pole = (1.4+13.2)gm = 14.6gm

Box weight is = (16.25 – 14.6) = 1.65gm

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) 1500 (b) 500 (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

A box is made in the form of a cube. If a second cubical box has inside dimensions three times those of the

first box, how many times as much does the second box contain?

(a) 12 (b) 27 (c) 9 (d) 6

Answer: 27

Solution:

Let,

one side of first cube = a

So, Volume of first cube = a3

ATQ,

One side of the 2nd cube = (3a)3 = 27a3

Times = 27a3 / a3 = 27

The average of 6 numbers is 25. If 3 more numbers, with an average of 22 are added to these numbers, what

will be the average of the combined 9 numbers?

(a) 20 (b) 24 (c) 26 (d) 32

Answer: 24

Solution:

Sum of 6 numbers = (6×25) = 150.

Sum of 3 additional numbers = (3 × 22) = 66.

Sum of (6 + 3) =9 numbers = (150+66)=216

.:. average of 9 numbers = 216/9 = 24

In a container, there are 2 green marbles and 2 red marbles. You randomly pick the marbles. What is the

probability that both of them are green?

(a) ½ (b) ¼ (c) 1/6 (d) 1/3

Answer: 1/6

Solution:

green ball = 2

Red ball = 2

From 4 balls, possibility of 2 green = 4C2 = 6

From 2 balls, possibility of 1 green = 2C2 = 1.

From rest 2 balls, possibility of being green = 2C2=1

Possibility of 2 green = (2C2 x 2C2)/4C2= (1×1)/6= 1/6

Now,

Highest ratio 19 = 19×3 = 57

A water tank has two taps (Tap-1 and Tap-2). Tap-1 can fill a tank in 8 hours and Tap.2.can empty the tank

in 16 hours. How long will they take to fill the tank if both taps are opened simultaneously but Tap-2 is

closed after 8 hours?

(a) 10 (b) 12 (c) 14 (d) 16

Answer: 12

Solution:

Tap-1, fills in 1 hr = 1/8

Tap-2, empties in 1 hr = 1/16

When both taps are open, the tank fills in 1 hr = (1/8 – 1/16) = 1/16

In 8 hrs, the tank fills = 1/16 ×৪ = ½

Remaining = 1 – ½ = ½

½ is filled by only Tap 1

1/8 is filled by Tap-1 in 1 hr

So, ½ is filled by = (1×8)/2= 4 hr

Total time = 8+4 = 12 hr

An iron rod that weighs 24 kg is cut into two pieces so that one of these pieces weighs 16 kg and is 34 m

long. If the weight of each piece is proportional to its length, how long is the other piece?

(a) 11 m (b) 17 m (c) 34 m (d) 68 m

Answer: 17 m

Solution:

16 kg rod = 34m

24 kg rod = (34×24)/16 = 51m

Length of the other part is = 51-34 = 17m

The price of a pen is 25% more than the price of a book. The price of a pen holder is 50% more than the

price of the book. How much is the price of the pen holder more than the price of the pen?

(a) 50% (b) 25% (c) 20% (d) 37.5%

Answer: 20%

Solution:

Let price of book = 100tk

Price of pen = 100+100×25% = 125 tk

Price of penholder = 100 + 100×50% = 150 tk

Difference is = 150 -125 = 25 tk

Percentage = (25×100)/125 = 20%

A 10% monthly salary increase resulted in a Tk.9000 per year increase in salary for an employee. What was

his monthly salary before the increase?

(a) Tk.7500 (b) Tk.8500 (c) Tk.5000 (d) Tk.9500

Answer: Tk. 7500

Solution:

Yearly increase = 9000 tk

Monthly increase = 9000/12 = 750 tk

The sum of principal and simple interest of a certain amount of money would be Tk.460 after 3 years from

now and Tk. 500 after 5 years from now. What is the total interest rate?

(a) 5% (b) 12% (c) 15% (d) 20%

Answer: 5%

Solution:

(5 – 3) yr = 2 yrs interest = (500 – 460) = 40 tk

1 year interest = 40/2 = 20 tk.

3 year interest = (20 × 3) = 60 tk

Principal amount= (460 – 60) = 400 tk

Interest rate = 60/(400×3) = 0.05 = 5%

The ratio between the perimeter and the breadth of a rectangular is 5:1. If the area of the rectangle is 216

cm2, what is the length of the rectangle?

(a) 16 cm (b) 18 cm (c) 20 cm (d) 22 cm

Answer: 18 cm

Solution:

Let,

Length and breadth of the rectangle= x, y

So, area = xy

Perimeter = 2(x+y)

ATQ,

2(x+y)/y = 5

Or, 2x + 2y = 5y

Or, 2x = 3y

Or, y = 2x/3

Now,

xy = 216

Or, x × 2x/3 = 216

Or, 2x2 = 648

Or, x2 = 324

Or, x = 18

An article when sold at a gain of 5% yields Tk. 15 more than when sold at a loss of 5%. Its cost price would

be

(a) Tk. 100 (b) Tk 150 (c) Tk 200 (d) Tk 250

Answer: Tk. 150

Solution:

At 5% profit, selling price = 100+5=105 tk.

At 5% loss, selling price = 100-5= 95 tk.

Difference between selling price = 105-95=10 tk.

If difference 10, then cost = 100tk

If difference 1, then cost = 100/10 tk

If difference 15, then cost = (100×15)/10 tk = 150tk.

If for integer x, 5<x<10 and y=x+5, what is the greatest possible value of x+y?

(a) 32 (b) 22 (c) 23 (d) 27

Answer: 23

Solution:

Given,

5 < x < 10 and y =x+5

Possible value of x = 6, 7, 8, 9

When x =9,

y =9+5 = 14

Now,

Page 7: AUST Question bank Prepared by: musfik alam Edited by: md ... › wp-content › uploads › 2018 › 01 › ...Edited by: md. Enamul hoque Topics: 1.Combined 3 Bank Senior Officer

x + y = 9 + 14 = 23

Increasing the original price of an item by 10%, then decreasing by 20% and then again increasing the price

by 10% is equivalent:

(a) 4.4% increase (b) 3.2% decrease (c) 3.5% decrease (d) None of these

Answer: 3.2% decrease

Solution:

Let,

Selling price = 100

After 10% increase = (100+10)=110

After 20% decrease = (110 – 20% of 110) = 88

After 10% increase = (88 + 10% of 88) = 96.8

Final decrease = (100-96.8)=3.2%

The interest charged on a loan is p dollars per $1,000 for the first month and q dollars per $1000 for each

month after the first month. How much interest will be charged during the first three months on a loan of

$10,000?

(a) 10p+20q (b) 30q (C) 30p (d) 20p+10q

Answer: 10p+20q

Solution:

Interest = 1st month + 2nd month + 3rd month

= p×(10000/1000) + q×(10000/1000) + q×(10000/1000)

=10p +10q + 10q

= 10p + 20q

In a club 50% of the male voters and 80% of the female voters voted for candidate A. If candida A received

70% of the total votes, what is the ratio of male to female voters?

(a) 1/3 (b) ¾ (c) ¼ (d) 1/2

Answer: 1/2

Solution:

Male voter = x

Female voter = y

50% of x + 80% of y = 70% of (x+y)

50x/100 + 80y/100 = 70(x+y)/100

50x + 80y = 70x + 70y

80y – 70y= 70x – 50x

10y = 20x

x/y = 10/20 = ½

In June a baseball team that played 60 games had won 30% of its games played. After a phenomenal

winning streak this team raised its average to 50% How many games must the team have won in a row to

attain this average?

(a) 30 (b) 45 (c) 20 (d) 24

Answer: 24

Solution:

Let, Additional match = x

Now,

30% of 60+ x = 50% of (60+x)

Or, 18+x = 30+0.5x

Or, x = 24

many steps he taken in that time?

A. 130 B. 170 C. 173 D. None

Answer: None

Solution:

9 sec = 30 steps

60 sec = (30×60)/9= 200 steps

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

Page 12: AUST Question bank Prepared by: musfik alam Edited by: md ... › wp-content › uploads › 2018 › 01 › ...Edited by: md. Enamul hoque Topics: 1.Combined 3 Bank Senior Officer

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 B. less than 0 C. less than x D. greater than 0

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

Page 13: AUST Question bank Prepared by: musfik alam Edited by: md ... › wp-content › uploads › 2018 › 01 › ...Edited by: md. Enamul hoque Topics: 1.Combined 3 Bank Senior Officer

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

Let,

The number = 10x + 3

ATQ,

Page 14: AUST Question bank Prepared by: musfik alam Edited by: md ... › wp-content › uploads › 2018 › 01 › ...Edited by: md. Enamul hoque Topics: 1.Combined 3 Bank Senior Officer

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?

A. 3000 B. 2000 C. 1900 D. 1800

Answer: 2000

Solution:

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

Page 15: AUST Question bank Prepared by: musfik alam Edited by: md ... › wp-content › uploads › 2018 › 01 › ...Edited by: md. Enamul hoque Topics: 1.Combined 3 Bank Senior Officer

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

Increasing area = 67500-30000 =37500

Percentage = (37500×100)/30000=125%

৩০. In a club 50% of the male voters and 80% of the female voters voted for candidate A. If candidate A

received 70% of the total votes, what is the ratio of male to female voters?

A. 1/5 B. ¼ C. ½ D. 1/3

Answer: ½

Solution:

Male voter = x

Female voter = y

50% of x + 80% of y = 70% of (x+y)

50x/100 + 80y/100 = 70(x+y)/100

50x + 80y = 70x + 70y

80y – 70y= 70x – 50x

10y = 20x

x/y = 10/20 = ½

৩২. The interest charged on a loan is p dollars per $1,000 for the first month and q dollars per $1,000 for

each month after the first month. How much interest will be charged during the first three months on a loan

of $10,000?

A. 10p+20q B. 30q C. 30p D. 20p+10q

Answer: 10p+20q

Solution:

Interest = 1st month + 2nd month + 3rd month

= p×(10000/1000) + q×(10000/1000) + q×(10000/1000)

=10p +10q + 10q

= 10p + 20q

৩৩. 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 of the above

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%

The box and its contents together weigh 16.25 gm. How much does the empty box weigh?

A. 1.25 gm B. 1.65 gm C. 2.25 gm D. 2.65 gm

Answer: 1.65 gm

Solution:

Weight of 7 nets = (7×0.2)gm =1.4gm

Weight of 12 poles = (12×1.1)gm = 13.2gm

Total weight of net and pole = (1.4+13.2)gm = 14.6gm

Box weight is = (16.25 – 14.6) = 1.65gm

33. In a club 50% of the male voters and 80% of the female voters voted for candidate A. If candidate A

received 70% of the total votes, what ‗is the ratio of male to female voters?

A. 1/3 B. ½ C. ¼ D. ¾

Answer: ½

Solution:

Let, total member of the club = 100 and male member =x

Female member = (100-x)

Now,

x×50% + (100-x)80% = 70×100%

5x +(100-x)8 = 70×10

5x + 800 – 8x = 700

3x = 100

X = 33.33

Now, female: Male = 33.33 : (100-33.33) = 1:2

pounds of apples?

A. 2% B. 6% C. 10% D. 12%

Answer: 6%

Solution:

Say, Cost of eggs = Cost of apples = 100

Total = 200

more than the cost of the wholesaler. What is the retailer‘s profit?

A. 30% B. 40% C. 50% D. 60%

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%

38. The price of a pen is 25% more than the price of a book. The price of a pen holder is 50% more than the

price of the book. How much is the price of the pen holder more than the price of the pen?

A. 20% B. 25% C. 50% D. 37.5%

Answer: 20%

Solution:

Let price of book = 100tk

Price of pen = 100+100×25% = 125 tk

Price of penholder = 100 + 100×50% = 150 tk

Difference is = 150 -125 = 25 tk

Percentage = (25×100)/125 = 20%

A. Tk. 100 B. Tk. 150 C. Tk. 200 D. Tk. 250

Answer: Tk. 150

Solution:

At 5% profit, selling price = 100+5=105 tk.

At 5% loss, selling price = 100-5= 95 tk.

Difference between selling price = 105-95=10 tk.

If difference 10, then cost = 100tk

If difference 1, then cost = 100/10 tk

If difference 15, then cost = (100×15)/10 tk = 150tk.

49. A is 30% more efficient than B. How much time will they, working together, take to complete a job

which A alone could have done in 23 days?

A. 13 days B. 15 days C. 10 days D. None of these

Answer: 13 days

Solution:

Ratio of times taken by A and B = 100 : 130 = 10 : 13.

Suppose, B takes x days to do the work.

Then,

10 : 13 = 23 : x

Or, x = (23 x 13)/10

Or, x = 299/10

A‘s 1 day‘s work = 1/23

B‘s 1 day‘s work = 10/299

(A + B)‘s 1 day‘s work =(1/23 +10/299)= 23/299 =1/13

Therefore, A and B together can complete the work in 13 days.

A. 32 B. 22 C. 23 D. 27

Answer: 23

Solution:

Given,

5 < x < 10 and y =x+5

Possible value of x = 6, 7, 8, 9

When x =9,

y =9+5 = 14

Now,

x + y = 9 + 14 = 23

52. Square of a number plus two times the number equal 63. What is the number?

53. If the perimeter of a certain rectangle is 76m and its area is 360m2, then what is the length of its shortest

side?

A. 18 B. 15 C. 13 D. 10

Answer: 18

Solution:

Let, length = x and width = y

Now, 2(x+y) = 76

x+y =38………(i)

xy = 360

x = 360/y……..(ii)

(i) =>

360/y + y =38

360 + y2 = 38y

y2 -38y + 360 = 0

y2 -20y – 18y + 360 = 0

y(y -20) – 18(y – 20) = 0

(y -20) (y – 18) = 0

y= 20 and 18

Width = 18m

54. If x=1+ √2 and y =1-√2 find the value of (x2

48. A lamp is manufactured to sell for $35.00, which yields a profit of 25% of cost. If the profit is to be

reduced to 15% of cost, what will be the new retail price of the lamp?

A. $31.50 B. $28.00 C. $21.00 D. $32.20

উত্তয: $32.20

Solution:

In 25% profit,

If selling price 125 then cost = 100

So, when selling price 35 then cost = (100×35)/125 = 28

In 15% profit,

If cost is 100 then selling price = 115

So, when cost is 28, then selling price = (115×28)/100 = 32.20

biggest and the smallest angles?

A. 10° B. 20° C. 25° D. 30°

উত্তয: 20°

Solution:

Sum of 3 angles of a triangle = 180°

Sum of ratio = 5+6+7 = 18

So, the larger angle = 180° × 7/18 = 70°

And, the smaller angle = 180° × 5/18 = 50°

Difference = 70° – 50° = 20°

54. 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. 375% B. 200% C. 150% D. 125%

উত্তয: 125%

Solution:

Let,

Side of a square = 100

So, area = (100)2 = 10000

Area of 3 square = 3× 10000 = 30000

After 50% increase side of a square becomes = (100 + 50% of 100) = 150

So, area = 1502 = 22500

Area of 3 square = 22500 × 3 = 67500

Area increases = (67500 – 30000) = 37500

So, percentage of increase = (37500×100)/30000 = 125%

Product B‘s percentage of profit = {(180-150)/150}×100 = 20%

Product C‘s percentage of profit = {(110-100)/100}×100 = 10%

56. A farmer has two rectangular fields. The larger field has twice the length and four times the width of the

smaller field. If the smaller field has area K, then the area of the larger field is greater than the area of the

smaller field by what amount?

A. 2K B. 5K C. 6K D. 7K

উত্তয: 7K

Solution:

Let,

Length of smaller field = x

So, length of larger field = 2x

Again,

Width of smaller field = y

So, width of larger filed = 4y

Area of smaller field = xy = K

Area of larger field = 2x × 4y = 8xy = 8K

Difference = 8K – K = 7K

From, (1)×3 – (2) ×4

12men + 18 women complete in 1 day = 3/8 part ——-(1-

12 men + 28 women complete in 1 day = 4/10 part —–(2)

-10 women complete in 1 day = 3/8 – 4/10 = -1/40

So, 10 women complete in 1 day = 3/8 – 4/10 = 1/40 part

So, they complete the work in 40 days

37. A water tank has two taps (Tap-1 and Tap 2). Tap-1 can fill a tank in 8 hours and Tap-2 can empty the

tank in 16 hours. How long will they fill the tank if both taps are opened simultaneously but Tap-2 is closed

after 8 hours?

A. 10 B. 12 C. 14 D. 16

উত্তয: 12

Solution:

Tap-1, fills in 1 hr = 1/8

Tap-2, empties in 1 hr = 1/16

When both taps are open, the tank fills in 1 hr = (1/8 – 1/16) = 1/16

In 8 hrs, the tank fills = 1/16 ×৪ = ½

Remaining = 1 – ½ = ½

½ is filled by only Tap 1

1/8 is filled by Tap-1 in 1 hr

So, ½ is filled by = (1×8)/2= 4 hr

Total time = 8+4 = 12 hr

remaining work alone in 60 days. In how many days shall B finish the whole work alone?

A. 60 days B. 70 days C. 80 days D. 90 days

উত্তয: C

Solution:

Let, A‘s 1 day‘s work = x and B‘s 1 days work =y

Then,

x + y = 1/40 ——(1)

20x + 60y = 1 —-(2)

From (2) – (1)×20,

20x + 60y – 20x -20y = 1 – ½

Or, 40y = ½

Or, y = 1/80

Therefore B‘s 1 day work = 1/80

Hence, B alone finishes the work in 80 days

48. Three pipes A, B and C can fill a tank in 6 hours. After working at it together for 2 hours, C is closed

and A and B can fill the remaining part in 6 hours. The number of hours taken by C alone to fill the tank is:

A. 8 hours B. 10 hours C. 14 hours D. 18 hours

উত্তয: 18 hours

Solution:

A + B+C fill the tank in 6 hrs

A+B+C fill in 2 hrs = 2/6 = 1/3

Remaining = 1- 1/3 = 2/3

In 6 hrs A + B fill 2/3

In 1 hr A + B fill 2/3 × 1/6 = 1/9

Now C alone fill in 1 hr = 1/6 – 1/9 = 1/18

So, C needs 18 hrs to fill the tank.

49. If x=7 – 4√3 then find the value of x+1/x?

A. 3√3 B. 8√3 C. 14 D. 14 + 8√3

উত্তয: 14

Solution:

x =7 – 4√3

1/x = 1/(7 – 4√3) = (7 + 4√3)/ (7 – 4√3)( 7 + 4√3) = (7 + 4√3)/49-48 =(7 + 4√3)

x+1/x = 7 – 4√3 + 7 + 4√3 = 14

50. An employer pays 3 workers X, Y and Z a total of Tk. 36,600 a week. X is paid 125% of the amount Y

is paid and 80% of the amount Z is paid. How much does X make a week?

A. 9,000 B. 12,000 C. 10,800 D. 11,700

উত্তয: 12,000

Solution:

X= 125% of y = 125y/100 = 5y/4

Or, y = 4x/5

Again,

X= 80% of z = 80z/100 = 4z/5

Or, z= 5x/4

X:y:z = x:4x/5:5x/4 = 20:16:25

Sum of ratio = 20+16+25=61

So, x makes a week = 20/61 × 36600 = 20×600=12000

51. The volume of a rectangular solid is to be increased by 50% without altering its base. To what extent the

height of the solid must be changed.

A. 50% B. 40% C. 30% D. 20%

উত্তয: 50%

Solution:

Let,

Volume = LBH

ATC,

LBH + 50% of LBH

=LBH + LBH/2

Let, H is to bbe increased by x%

So,

LB(H+Hx/100) = LBH + LBH/2

Or, LBH + LBHx/100 = LBH + LBH/2

Page 52: AUST Question bank Prepared by: musfik alam Edited by: md ... › wp-content › uploads › 2018 › 01 › ...Edited by: md. Enamul hoque Topics: 1.Combined 3 Bank Senior Officer

Or, LBHx/100 = LBH/2

Or, x/100= ½

Or, x = 50%

52. If is added to the square of a number, the answer so obtained is 16202. What is the 1/26 of that number?

A. 5.65 B. 2.70 C. 3.50 D. 6.66

উত্তয: 3.50

Solution:

ATQ,

(89)2 + x2 = 16202

Or, x2 = 16202 – (89)2= 16202 – 7921 = 8281

.::x=√(8281) = ±91

Now, 1/26 of 91 = 3.50

35. Karim has 40% more stamps than Rahim if he gives 45 of his stumps to Rahim, then Rahim will have

10% more stamps than Karim. How many stamps did Karim begin with?

Page 56: AUST Question bank Prepared by: musfik alam Edited by: md ... › wp-content › uploads › 2018 › 01 › ...Edited by: md. Enamul hoque Topics: 1.Combined 3 Bank Senior Officer

A. 175 B. 200 C. 220 D. 245

Answer: 245

Solution:

Let,

Rahim has = x stamps

So Karim has = 140% of x = 1.4x

ATQ,

110% of (1.4x-45) = x+45

Or, {11(1.4x – 45)/10} = x + 45

or, 15.4x-495 = 10x+450

or, 5.4x = 945

Or, x= 175

So, Karim has 175+ 40% of 175 = 175+70 = 245

36. P & Q start a business with initial investments in the ratio of 13:8. Their corresponding profits are in the

ratio of 7:5. If P invested his money for 7 months, find the time period for what Q invested his money.

A. 8 months B. 9 months C. 10 months D. 11 months

Answer: 8 months

Solution:

Let,

Q invested for x months

ATQ,

(13×7) : (8×x) = 7:5

Or, 91/8x = 7/5

Or, 8x = 91×5/7

Or, x = 65/8=8.125 =8

37. Compound interest on a certain sum for 2 years at 10% per annum is Tk.420. What would be the simple

interest at the same rate and for the same time?

A. Tk100 B. Tk.200 C. Tk.300 D. Tk.400

Answer: Tk 400

Solution:

Let,

Principal =P

ATQ,

P × (|1+ 10/100)2 –P = 420

Or, P(11/10)2 –P = 420

Or, P(1.1)2 – P = 420

Or, 1.21P – P = 420

Or, P(1.21 – 1) = 420

Or, 0.21P = 420

Or, P = 2000

Simple interest = 2000 × 2 × 10/100 = 400

distance he has to travel to get back home?

A. 19 km B. 7 km C. 5 km D. 12 km

Answer: 5km

Solution:

His last destination was club. This club may be either side of stadium and in a straight line. So, minimum

distance = 12-7 = 5km

39. If a man cycles at 10 km/hr, then he arrives at a certain place at 1 pm. If he cycles at 15 km/hr, arrive at

the same place at 11 am. At what speed must he cycles to go there at noon?

A. 11 km/hr B. 12 km/hr C. 13 km/hr D. 14 km/hr

Answer: 12 km/hr

Solution:

Let,

distance = x

Time difference(Same Day) = 1 PM. – 11 AM. = 2 hours.

ATQ,

x/10 – x/15 = 2

Or, x/30 = 2

Or, x = 60

.:.x = 60

When speed is 10km/hr then time taken = 60 ÷10 = 6 hours.

So, at 10km/hr, his starting time was = 1PM. – 6 hours = 7 AM(Same Day)

So, to reach at noon or 12 P.M, total time needed = 12 P.M. –7 A.M = 5hours.

Thus, speed = 60 ÷ 5 = 12km/hr.

=(√2 -2√2)(2√2 +2√2)

=4√2(√2 -2√2)

=4√2.√2(1 – 2)

= – 4√2.√2

= – 8

41. A tank can be filled by a tap in 20 minutes and by another tap in 60 minutes both the taps are kept open

for 10 minutes and then the first tap is shut off. After this, the tank will completely filled in what time?

A. 10 min B. 15 min C. 20 min D. 25 min

Answer: 20 min

Solution:

In 1 min both taps fill = 1/20 + 1/60 = 4/60 = 1/15

So, in 10 minutes taps fill = 10 × 1/15 = 2/3

Remaining part = 1 – 2/3 = 1/3

After shutting off 1st tap,

2nd tap fills 1/3 part in 60 × 1/3 minutes = 20 minutes

box. The probability that at least one of these is defective is

A. 7/19 B. 6/19 C. 5/19 D. 3/19

Answer: 7/19

Solution:

Here, Total bulbs = 20

defective bulbs = 4

so, non defective bulbs = 20-4 = 16

Probability = 16C2 / 20C2 = (16 × 15)/2 ÷ (20 × 19)/2 = 120/190 = 12/19

.:. at least 1 defective = 1 – 12/19 = 7/19

43. There is a rectangular parking lot with a length of 2x and a wide of x. What is the ratio of the perimeter

A. 2/x B. 3/x C. 4/x D. 5/x

Answer: 3/x

Solution:

Perimeter =2(2x+x) = 6x

Area = 2x × x = 2×2

Ratio = 6x:2×2 = 3:x = 3/x

44. The ratio of income of A to that of B is 7:5 and expenditure of A to that B is 3 : 2. If at the end of the

year, each saves Tk. 500, find the income of A?

A. Tk. 2500 B. Tk. 300 C. Tk. 3200 D. Tk. 3500

Answer: Tk. 3500

Solution:

Let, income of A and B = 7x and 5x

And expenditure = 3y and 2y respectively

ATQ,

7x-3y = 500 —– (i)

5x-2y = 500 —– (ii)

From (ii) × 3 – (i) × 2,

15x – 6y -14x + 6y = 1500 – 1000

Or, x = 500

So, income of A = 7×500 =Tk. 3500

47. A bank offers 5% interest compounded half yearly. A customer deposits Tk.1600 each on 1st January

and 1st. July of a year. At the end of the year the amount he would have gained by the way of interest is

A. Tk. 121 B. Tk. 122 C. Tk. 123 D. Tk. 124

Answer: Tk. 121

Solution :

Total amount = 1600(1+5/2 %)2 + 1600(1+5/2 %)

=1600{1+ 5/(2×100)}2 + 1600{1+ 5/(2×100)}

= 1600(1+1/40)2 +1600(1+1/40)

= 1600 × 41/40 × 41/40 + 1600 × 41/40

= 1600 × 41/40 (41/40 + 1)

= 1600 × 41/40 × 81/40 =3321

Gain = 3321 – (1600+1600) = 121

x = 20% of x + 60% of x + 12

Or, x = x/5 + 3x/5 + 12

Or, x – x/5 – 3x/5 = 12

Or, x/5 = 12

Or, x = 60

Professors don‘t wear glasses = x – 20 = 60 – 20 = 40

Required percentage = (40/60) × 100 = 66 2/3% = 66%

55. The ratio of investments of two partners P and Q is 7:5 and the ratio of their profits is 7:10. If P invested

the money for months, find for how much time did Q invest the money?

A. 7 months B. 10 months C. 9 months D. 11 months

Answer: (Wrong question)

Solution:

Let,

Q invested for x months

ATQ,

7×y : 5×x = 7:10

Or, 7y/5x = 7/10

Or, x= (10/7) × 7y × 1/5 = 2y

এখন y এয ভান ফদ্বযয় দ্বদযরই যফ।

56. A clock strikes once at1 o‘clock twice at 2 o‘clock, thrice at 3 o‘clock and so on. How many times will it

57. The perimeter of a rectangle is 26 cm. The rectangle is converted to a square by tripling the width and

taking a quarter of the length, What is the perimeter of the resulting square?

A. 9 cm B. 12 cm C. 20 cm D. 26 cm

Answer: 12 cm

Solution:

2(length + breadth) = perimeter

Or, 2(L + B) = 26

Or, L + B = 13

Or, B = 13 – L

New L of square = 3L & B = (13-L) × ¼

ATQ,

3L = (13-L) × ¼

Or, 12L = 13 – L

Or, L = 1

So, length of the square = 3×1 = 3

So, perimeter of the square = 4×3 =12

58. In an examination, 34% of the students failed in mathematics and 42% failed in English. If 20% of the

Page 62: AUST Question bank Prepared by: musfik alam Edited by: md ... › wp-content › uploads › 2018 › 01 › ...Edited by: md. Enamul hoque Topics: 1.Combined 3 Bank Senior Officer

Or, 100% = 34% + 42% – 20% + passed in both

Or, passed in both = 44%

59. 125 gallons of a mixture contains 20% water. What amount of additional water should be added such

that water content is raised to 25%?

A. 15/2 gallons B. 17/2 gallons C. 19/2 gallons D. 25/3 gallons

Answer: 25/3 gallons

Solution:

Water in the mixture = 20% of 125 = 25 gallons

So, other = 125-25 = 100

let, water be added = x

ATQ,

25+x = 25% of (125+x)

Or, 25 + x = (125+x)/4

Or, 100+4x =125+x

Or, 3x = 25

Or, x = 25/3.
