BASIC Bank Assistant Manager MCQ Question Solution
BASIC Bank recruitment-test resource
80-Question Answer Key, Math Explanations and Scans
This resource brings together the four-section BASIC Bank Limited Assistant Manager MCQ question set held on 26 January 2018, a searchable answer key, worked mathematics and eight full-size scan segments. Try the questions before checking the marked answers, then verify any doubtful item rather than memorising it.
Do not confuse the entities: this paper is for BASIC Bank Limited. It is not a Bangladesh Bank Assistant Director or Officer recruitment paper. The organisation and post name matter when comparing previous questions.
What was in the 2018 Assistant Manager paper?
The printed questions identifies four sections. Every MCQ carried 1.25 marks, producing a total of 100 marks from 80 questions. The available copy does not show a negative-marking instruction, so no negative-marking rate should be assumed from this resource.
| Section | Question range | Marks |
|---|---|---|
| Bangla | 1–16 | 20 |
| English Proficiency | 17–28 | 15 |
| Mental Ability | 29–32 | 5 |
| General Mathematics | 33–56 | 30 |
| General Knowledge and Basic Computer | 57–80 | 30 |
This distribution belongs to this specific 2018 question set. A future BASIC Bank or bank-recruitment test may use a different syllabus, question count, duration or marking rule. Check the vacancy notice and examination instructions for the recruitment cycle you are actually attending.

*Question 60 is shown with “Astronomical units” marked in the retained scan. Because the wording appears ambiguous, verify it from a dependable general-science reference before adding it to revision notes. For question 66, the World Bank’s concessional or “soft-loan” window is the International Development Association (IDA).
General Mathematics solutions: Questions 33–56
The mathematics pages are also circulated as a 24-question set numbered 1–24. In the complete recruitment paper, however, the same items are numbered 33–56. The table follows the complete question-set numbering so that it matches the question scans below.
| No. | Short working | Answer |
|---|---|---|
| 33 | Two green from four marbles: C(2,2) ÷ C(4,2) = 1/6. | D · 1/6 |
| 34 | 20% of a 360° circle = 360 × 20/100 = 72°. | B · 72° |
| 35 | Upstream speed = 24/6 = 4; downstream = 24/4 = 6; stream speed = (6−4)/2 = 1 km/h. | C · 1 km/h |
| 36 | Cost = 6x; eight litres sell for 16x; profit = 10x; profit rate = 10x/6x × 100. | B · 166.67% |
| 37 | 300/x − 300/(x+5) = 10 gives x² + 5x − 150 = 0, so x = 10. | C · Tk 10 |
| 38 | 4m+6w = 1/8 and 3m+7w = 1/10 imply 10w = 1/40; therefore ten women need 40 days. | A · 40 days |
| 39 | x × 2/5 × 1/4 × 3/7 = 15 gives x = 350; half is 175. | C · 175 |
| 40 | 63 km/h = 17.5 m/s. In 30 seconds the train covers 525 m; bridge length = 525−170. | A · 355 m |
| 41 | Net fill in first eight hours = 8(1/8−1/16) = 1/2. Tap 1 fills the remaining half in four hours. | B · 12 hours |
| 42 | Cylinder volume = π(2r)²(2r) = 8πr³; each sphere = 4πr³/3; number = 6. | D · 6 |
| 43 | 800+800(.06)n = 600+600(.10)n gives 12n = 200. | A · 50/3 years |
| 44 | Combined average = (6×25 + 3×22) ÷ 9 = 24. | A · 24 |
| 45 | Larger = 6n+15 and difference = 1365; 6n+15−n = 1365, so n = 270. | A · 270 |
| 46 | If ab=p, then (a+2)(b+2)−2(a+b)=ab+4=p+4. “Times” is unnecessary in the option wording. | C · p+4 |
| 47 | For positive numbers a>b>1, squaring preserves the inequality. | A · a²>b² |
| 48 | From A+B=1/40 and 20A+60B=1, solving gives B=1/80. | C · 80 days |
| 49 | Ratios 2:3:5 and 2:3:7 after adding six green marbles give 2x/(5x+6)=2/7; x=3; white=2x. | B · 6 |
| 50 | Half the plot is 363 m², so total area = 726. With length=3w, 3w²=726; w=√242 and length=3√242. | ≈46.67 m · no matching option |
| 51 | Exactly one defective bulb = [C(2,1)×C(8,1)] ÷ C(10,2) = 16/45. | B · 16/45 |
| 52 | A+B+C fill 1/3 in two hours. A+B then fill 2/3 in six hours; C’s six-hour share is 1/3. | D · 18 hours |
| 53 | For x=7−4√3, rationalising gives 1/x=7+4√3; therefore x+1/x=14. | C · 14 |
| 54 | X=1.25Y and X=0.8Z, so Y=0.8X and Z=1.25X. Thus 3.05X=36,600. | B · Tk 12,000 |
| 55 | With base area unchanged, a 50% volume increase requires height to become 1.5 times the original. | A · 50% |
| 56 | x²+89²=16,202 gives x²=8,281 and x=91; 91/26=3.5. | C · 3.50 |

How to practise with this paper
- Recreate the test: attempt all 80 MCQs in 60 minutes without looking at the red markings or answer tables.
- Score by section: record separate results for Bangla, English, Mental Ability, Mathematics and General Knowledge/Computer.
- Check the reasoning: for mathematics, compare each calculation rather than accepting only the option letter.
- Flag uncertain answers: verify ambiguous language, current-affairs and institutional questions from a dependable source.
- Build an error list: write one short rule or method for every wrong answer, then revisit those items after several days.
- Return to the active notice: use this older paper for practice, but follow the current circular and exam instructions for the recruitment you are attending.
