other diagonal is -[BKB (CASH ) -2017]
A. 18
B. 12
C. 9
D. 6
Solution: (A)
Area of rhombus is (x*6) = 54 or 3x = 54 So, x = 18
47. If one number exceeds another number by 14 and the larger number is times the smaller number, then the
smaller number is -[BKB (CASH ) -2017]
A. 13
B. 26
C. 28
D. 31
Solution: (C)
3/2 = 1.5
Let small number is x, so large number is 1.5x
ATQ,
1.5x-x = 14 or. 0.5x = 14 so, x = 28
Alternative solution:
let large 3x and small 2x
So 3x-2x=14
Or x=14
So smaller=2*14=28
48. The ratio between two numbers is 3:4 and their sum is 420. The greater one of the two numbers is -[BKB
(CASH ) -2017]
A. 360
B.240
C 180
D 120
Solution: (B)
If the number is 3x and 4x then 3x+4x =420 or 7x =420 so x = 60 so the greater number is 460 = 240

A. 2
B.3
C.2/3
D.3/2
Solution: (d)
4^x+1=32
Or, 22(x+1) =25 = or, 2x+2 = 5 or 2x = 3 So, x =

A. 9
B.7
C.6
D. 8
Solution: (D)
51. What will be the difference between simple and compound interest at 10% on a sum of Tk. 1000 after 4
years? [BKB (CASH ) -2017]
A.Tk.31.90
B. Tk. 32.10
C. 44.90
D. Tk. 64.10
Solution: (D)
Formal Solution:
simple interest=1000*10*4/100=400 tk
10%=1/10
So compound=1000*(1+1/10)^4-1000
=1000*(11/10)^4 -1000
=1000*11*11*11*11/10*10*10*10 -1000
=1464.1-1000 =464.1
So difference=464.1-400=64.1
