Identify Time Taken: Identify the time taken by A, B, and C to prepare one necklace each. A takes 12 minutes, B takes 18 minutes, and C takes 24 minutes.
Find LCM: Find the least common multiple (LCM) of the times taken by A, B, and C to determine when they will all finish a necklace at the same time and start a new one together. Calculate LCM of 12, 18, and 24.
Break Down Factors: Break down each time into its prime factors: 12=22×3, 18=2×32, and 24=23×3.
Calculate LCM: The LCM is found by taking the highest power of each prime that appears in the factorization. LCM=23×32.
Calculate LCM: The LCM is found by taking the highest power of each prime that appears in the factorization. LCM=23×32. Calculate the LCM: 23=8 and 32=9, so LCM=8×9=72 minutes.
