Problema Solution
three bells ring at intervals of 6seconds,8seconds and 12seconds authomatically,after how many seconds will they ring again
Answer provided by our tutors
they will ring again all together at the least common multiple of 6, 8, and 12. list the prime factorizations of each:
6 = 2*3
8 = 2*2*2
12 = 2*2*3
two appears the most 3 times, and 3 appears the most once, so you have
2*2*2*3 = 24
therefore, they will all ring together again at 24 seconds.
