Hey dearie!
Here is your answer ☺
To find after how many minutes they toll together again , we have to find the LCM of these three numbers.
15=3×5
16=2×2×2×2 = 2^4
36=2×2×3×3 = 2^2 ×3^2
LCM = 2^4×3^2×5
=720 minutes
There fore they will toll together at after every 720minutes or 12hrs
And if they tolled together at 2:00p.m
They will toll together again at 2:00 a.m
hope this helps!
