mark me as brain list ♥️
(i.) Therefore the 4 bells ring together at 12:01:24.
(ii.) Therefore all bells toll together 10 times in 14 minutes.
Given:
4 bells toll at intervals of 3, 7, 12, and 14 seconds.
The 4 bells begin to toll at 12 'o clock.
To Find:
(i.) The 4 bells toll together at what time?
(ii.) How many times do 4 bells toll together in 14 minutes?
Solution:
The given question can be solved as shown below.
(i.) The LCM of the interval of all 4 bells gives the time after which they toll again together.
LCM of 3, 7, 12, and 14:
2 I 3, 7, 12, 14
3 I 3, 7, 6, 7
7 I 1, 7, 2, 7
2 I 1, 1, 2, 1
1, 1, 1, 1
Hence the LCM of 3, 7, 12, and 14 = 2 × 3 × 7 × 2 = 84
So, the 4 bells ring together after 84 seconds after 12'o clock and the time is 12 hours 1 min, and 24 seconds.
Therefore the 4 bells ring together at 12:01:24.
(ii.) Number of seconds present in 14 minutes = 14 × 60 = 840 seconds
⇒ The number of times the 4 bells ring together in 14 minutes = ( Total Time )/( Time interval taken for 4 bells to ring together )
⇒ The number of times the 4 bells ring together in 14 minutes = 840/84 = 10 times.
Therefore all bells toll together 10 times in 14 minutes.
(i.) Therefore the 4 bells ring together at 12:01:24.
(ii.) Therefore all bells toll together 10 times in 14 minutes.
