Answer» ONG>Answer: They will toll together for a 'common MULTIPLE' of (4,7,12,84), which is the l.c.m of these numbers. 4== 2^2 7 == 7 12 = 2^2 * 3 84 = 12 * 7 = 2^2 * 3 * 7 l.c.m(4,7,12,84) = 2^2 * 3 * 7 = 84 s 84 s = 1 min 24 sec Hence they will toll together 84 SECONDS after 5 o'clock or 5:01:24 hrs ( 1 min 24 sec past 5 o'clock) 28 mins = 28*60 = 1680 sec 84 sec== toll 1 TIME 1680 sec== X times X = 20 times Hence, They toll together at 5:01:24 hrs In 28 mins they toll (together) 20 times.
