Question

ram takes 20 minutes to inspect a car, while robert takes only 18 minutes.if both start inspecting car at 8.00 hours what is the first time at which both will have finished inspecting a car at the same point time

Answer 1

11:00

Explanation:

here we have to calculate the LCM of 20 and 18

20 = 2² × 5

18 = 2 × 3²

Then

LCM(20 , 18) = 2² × 5 × 3² = 20 × 9 = 180

The

After 180 minutes (3 hours) they will have finished inspecting a car at the same point time.

Then

At 8:00 + 3 = 11:00 Ram and Robert will have finished inspecting a car at the same point time.
