Answer:

A bell rings 12 times in a hour.

Explanation:

We know 60 minutes are in an hour and the question is asking how many times it rings within that hour so what we are going to do is,

60 divided by 5 = 12.

Therefore the answer is 12.

Hope that helps. x

Question:-

If a bell rings in every five minutes how many times does it ring in an hour?

Answer:-

12

Explanation:-

The bell rings after every 5 minutes. We know that there are 60 minutes in an hour. Therefore, dividing 60 minutes (1 hour) by 5 gives you the number of times the bell rings in an hour.

=> 60/5 = 12

The bell rings 12 times in an hour.
