Question 96

Alarms from 3 different clocks sound after every 2, 4 and 6 hours, respectively. If the clocks are started at the same time, how many times do the alarms ring together in 3 days?

Solution

If we take the LCM of 2, 4 and 6 hours then got 12 hours.

In 12 hours alarms ring simultaneously once.

It means 12 hours = 1.

Hence 3 days = 72 hours = 6.
