-
- LCM of 2,4,6,8,10 and 12 is 12o
i.e 120 sec = 2 min
In 3o min [(30/2)+1] .....here 1 is added for last toll
= 16
ans:(d) 16 - 14 years agoHelpfull: Yes(25) No(4)
- L.C.M. of 2,4,6,8,10,12 is 120.
So they toll once together in 2 minutes.
In 30 minutes they toll together for 30/2 + 1 times= 16 times.
