Three bells toll at intervals of 8 minutes, 15 minutes, and 24 minutes respectively. If they toll together at 3 p.m., at what time will they next toll together?

What is the LCM of 8, 15, and 24? 120
That means, it would be 120 minutes before they are together again.
120 minutes after 3 pm is 5:00 pm
