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. 1/2
C. 1/4
D. 3/4
Answer:B. 1/2
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

D. 4/3
Answer : C. 8/3
Solution:
Let, milk in 4 litter bottle is x litter
So, milk in 2 litter bottle is (4-x) litter
x/4 = (4-x)/2
⇒ x = 8-2x
∴ x = 8/3
35. One dozen eggs and ten pounds of apples are currently of the same price. If the price of a dozen eggs rises by 10% and that of apples rises by 2%, how much more will it cost to buy a dozen of eggs and ten pounds of apples?

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%

A. Tk. 100
B. Tk. 150
C. Tk. 200
D. Tk. 250
Answer: B. Tk. 150
Solution:

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: A. 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.
