Answer: 16 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, take the LCM of the 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 seconds

That makes 120 seconds.

Meaning at 2 minutes it rings.

In 30 minutes they will ring 15 times together.

Of course, through logical thinking, we can conclude they also ring together at 0 seconds.

Therefore it is 15 + 1 = 16 times.

take lcm convert to minutes then divide 30 by that value and add 1


shwetaekka: I can't understand that why we add 1
ItzTacoTimee: I explained it in my answer. They, logically thinking, also ring together at 0 seconds, when they start.
Umeshlohani: no logical thinking see question first line
Umeshlohani: what it said
Umeshlohani: started tolling together
Umeshlohani: started ringing
Umeshlohani: after that 2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18,30,21,22,24,26,28,30 minutes will be time
Umeshlohani: so 15 times plus one starting
ItzTacoTimee: Yes, through reading that and having the capability of understanding that line, which is called logical thinking, you can come to the conclusion it’s 15 + 1.
Umeshlohani: ohh
