this is type of A.P.
arithmetic progression
for first atomic device
15 + (r-1)15
= 15r
for second
20 + (n-1)20
= 20n
where r and n are positive integers
and r and n are number of deep they made after 6a.m
so for next deep together
15r = 20n
3r = 4n
as r and n are integers
so
r = 4
and n = 3
i.e. they will deep together again
after 60min
or 1hr
or 7a.m.
ans = 7a.m.
