Problems on H.C.F and L.C.M
Five bells ring together and ring at intervals of 2, 6, 8, 12 and 15 seconds respectively. How many times will they ring together in 60 minutes?
L.C.M. of 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 is 120. So, the bells will toll together after every 120 seconds(2 minutes). In 30 minutes, they will toll together 30 + 1 = 16 times. 2
