Question 46

A clock strikes once at 1 o'clock, twice at 2 o'clock and so on. If it takes 6 seconds to strike at 3 o'clock, how much time will it take to strike at 9 o'clock?

Solution

The clock strikes thrice at 3.

There are two intervals between 3 strikes. For nine strikes there will be 8 intervals.

2 intervals take 6 seconds. => 8 intervals will take 24 seconds.
