Math, asked by TheTheyLoveKeke, 1 year ago

A clock chimes every hour. The clock chimes once at 1 o'clock, twice at 2 o'clock, and so on.
A. How many times will the clock chime from 1 p.m. through midnight? in exactly one 24-hour period?
B. Another clock also chimes once on every half hour. How does this affect the sequence and the total number of chimes per day?
