- First of all it should be *BELLS not BALLS
Answer:
L.C.M. of 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 is 120.
So, the bells will toll together after every 120 seconds(2 minutes).
In 30 minutes, they will toll together 30/2+ 1 = 16 times.

- 15 times
with the intervals of 2,4,6,8 and 10 and 12, bells toll together at 120 sec=2 min
(As l.c.m of these numbers=120)
So in 30 minutes,they toll together=30/2=15 times
