Explanation:
A Collection of 16 coins,each with a face value of either 10 paisa or 25 paisa, has a total face value of Tk. 2.35 How many of the coins have a face value of 25 paisa? Correct Answer 5 A Collection of 16 coins,each with a face value of either 10 paisa or 25 paisa, has a total face value of Tk. 2.35 How many of the coins have a face value of 25 paisa? We can let the number of 10 - paisa coins = d and the number of 25 - paisa coins = q. We are given that there are 16 total coins; thus, d + q = 16. We are also given that the total face value isTk.2.35, thus: 0.1d + 0.25q = 2.35 10d + 25q = 235 Isolating d in our first equation, we have d = 16 - q. We can substitute 16 - q for d in our second equation and we have: 10(16 - q) + 25q = 235 160 - 10q + 25q = 235 15q = 75 q = 5 There are 5 coins with a face value of 25 paisa.

A person travels a certain distance at 3 km / hr and reaches 15 min late. If he travels at 4 km / hr, he reaches 15 min earlier . The distance he has to travel is __
Correct Answer:
B: 6 km
Explanation:
A person travels a certain distance at 3 km / hr and reaches 15 min late. If he travels at 4 km / hr, he reaches 15 min earlier . The distance he has to travel is __ Correct Answer 6 km Let the time taken to travel at speeds 3 km/h and 4 km/h be t1 and t2 respectively. So, t1 - t2 = 15 - ( - 15) = 30 minutes = 0.5 h Now, let the distance travelled be = x km So, (x / 3) - (x / 4) = 0.5 ⇨ x = 6 km
In a business A and C invested amounts in the ratio 2 : 1 whereas A and B invested amounts in the ratio 3 : 2 . If their annual profit be Tk. 157300, then B's share in the profit is
Correct Answer:
C: Tk. 48400
Explanation:
In a business A and C invested amounts in the ratio 2 : 1 whereas A and B invested amounts in the ratio 3 : 2 . If their annual profit be Tk. 157300, then B's share in the profit is Correct Answer Tk. 48400 Assume that investment of C = x Then, investment of A = 2x Investment of B = 2A/3 = 4x/3 (since ratio of investment of A : B = 2 : 3 i.e B = 2A/3) A : B : C = 2x : 4x/3: x = 2 : 4/3 : 1 = 6 : 4 : 3 B's Share = 157300 × 4/(6 + 4 + 3) = 157300 × 4/13 = 12100 × 4 = Tk. 48400

The difference between the radii of bigger circle and smaller circle is 14 cm and the difference between their areas is 1056 cm2 . Radius of the smaller circle is _
Correct Answer:
B: 5 cm
Explanation:
The difference between the radii of bigger circle and smaller circle is 14 cm and the difference between their areas is 1056 cm2 . Radius of the smaller circle is _ Correct Answer 5 cm Let the radius of the smaller circle be r cm Then, radius of bigger circle = (r + 14)cm Given, π(r + 14) 2−π(r) 2 = 1056 ⇒ π(r 2 + 28r + 196)−πr 2 = 1056 ⇒πr 2 + 28πr + 196π−πr 2 = 1056 ⇒28 × 22/ 7 + 196x22/ 7 = 1056 = >88r + 616 = 1056 ⇒r = 5 cm

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.
Correct Answer:
D: 32
Explanation:
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. Correct Answer 32 The average age of a group of 15 employees is 24 years. Therefore, the sum of the ages of all 15 of them = 15 * 24 = 360 When 5 more employees join the group, the average age increases by 2 years. New average = 26. Now, there are 20 employees. Therefore, the sum of the ages of all 20 of them = 20x26 = 520 Therefore, the sum of the ages of the 5 new students who joined = 520 - 360 = 160 And the average age of each of the 5 new students = 160/5 = 32 years.
