To find the time in which all the bells ring together, we need to find the LCM of 36,40,48.
Prime factorization of 36=2×2×3×3
Prime factorization of 40=2×2×2×5
Prime factorization of 48=2×2×2×2×3
Hence, LCM of 36,40,48=2×2×2×2×3×3×5=720 seconds.
720seconds=
60
720
minutes=12minutes
Hence, all the bells will ring together after 12 mi
-30-27= -57
When both numbers are negative, they are “added” in a sense, but remain negative.
-5-(-4)= -1
You have to multiply the (-4) by the “invisible” -1 on the outside before you add/subtract.
10x + 25 = $145
10x = $120
x =10
The number of poses is 10
