The common multiple between the three numbers is 3456. 
48 * 72 = 3456 
72 * 48 = 3456 
108 * 32 = 3456 
So, the next time the lights change simultaneously is 3456 seconds later or 57 minutes 36 seconds later. If it's 7am now, it will change at 7:57 and 36 seconds

Traffic lights change for every 48, 72, 108 seconds

LCM of 48, 72, 108 is 432

That means, after 432 seconds, all the three lights will changes

That means, after 7 min 12 seconds.

therefore, they will change at 08:07:12 am.
