Answer» ☞ Both the bells will ring simultaneously again at 11:30 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ✭ Two bells ring at an interval of 30 & 36 minutes ✭ They rang simultaneously at 8:30 am ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ◈ When will they ring back TOGETHER again? ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ So here we shall first find the HCF of 30 & 36, that is, ➝ 30 = 2 × 3 × 5 ➝ 36 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 = 2² × 3² LCM is the product of the LEAST power of the common factors,so, ➝ LCM(30,36) = 2² × 3² × 5 ➝ LCM(30,36) = 180 So it means that the two bells will ring again in 180 minutes,so if we had to show it from 8:30 we have to convet 180 minutes to hours, that is, ➳ ➳ ➳ Adding it to 8:30 am »» »» ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ |
