Answer 2

Answer:

It will take 27 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

As we can see from the question, We had given that at 1 pm it strikes 1 time and at 2 pm it strikes 2 times

So at 4 pm it strikes 4 times and takes 12 seconds to strike 4 times i.e. 3 seconds to strike 1 time

Therefore we need to find how much time will it take to strike at 9 pm

The time will be

=$9\times3=27$

The final answer will be 27 seconds it will take to strike at 9 pm
