94. The value of a fraction is 2/5. If the numerator is decreased by 2 and the denominator increased by 1,
the resulting fraction is equivalent to ¼. Find the numerator and the denominator of the original fraction.

x
Let the fraction be

x 2
From given data, =  5x = 2y ........ (I)
y 5
x−2 1
Again, =  4x – 8 = y + 1  y = 4x – 9 ....... (II)
y +1 4
Now putting the value of y in (I),
5x = 2 (4x – 9) = 8x – 18  – 3x = – 18  x = 6
So, 5  6 = 2y  y = 15

Ans. numerator 6 of denominator 15.
2x
Or Let, the original fraction be
5x
2x − 2 1
According to question, =  8x – 8 = 5x + 1  3x = 9  x = 3

So, the numerator of the denominator of the fraction be ( 3 2) = 6 and (5 3) =15; Ans.

[Link] to cricket game costs TK.40 for reserved seats and TK.30 for general seas. If all 500 tickets were
sold for TK.17600, then how many reserved seats were sold?

Let the number of reserved seats be x

 Number of general seats = 500 – x
According to question, 40x + (500 – x) 30 = 17600
 40x + 15000 – 30x = 17600  10x = 2600  x = 260
 The number of reserved seats is 260

125. If the sum of two numbers is 24, what is their maximum product?(¸Ydj)

A) 164 B) 132 C) 144 D) 196 E) none of these

(C) Say, (x + y) = 24 and product xy will be maximum when the individual value of x and y is
equal to each other. Then, x = 12, y = 12 and the product, xy = 12  12 = 144

Or,
24 = 12 + 12  12  12 = 144
24 = 13 + 11  13  11 = 143
24 = 14 + 10  14  10 = 140;
In this kind of problem, the product of two equal numbers is always maximum. So the
Answer will be (C).
