उत्तर
Given that,
Two alarms ring at regular intervals of 20 and 25 minutes, respectively.
The time they will beep together again is their LCM.
So, LCM (20, 25)
20 = 2 × 2 × 5
25 = 5 × 5
LCM (20, 25) = 2 × 2 × 5 × 5 = 100
So, they will beep together after 100 minutes or 1 hour 40 minutes.
They will beep again after 12 noon at 1:40 pm.
