One car alarm is set to go off every ten seconds. Another car alarm is set to go off every 5 seconds, and a third car alarm is set to go off every 4 seconds. If they all go off at the same time due to a loud clap of thunder, how long will it take until they all sound at the same time again?

20 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Alarm 1 = every 10 seconds

Alarm 2 = every 5 seconds

Alarm 3 = every 4 seconds

If they all go off at the same time due to a loud clap of thunder, how long will it take until they all sound at the same time again?

To determine how long it will take until they all sound at the same time again, find the lowest common multiple of the three alarm

Alarm 1 (every 10 seconds) = 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90,

Alarm 2 (every 5 seconds) = 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50

Alarm 3 (every 4 seconds) = 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44, 48

The lowest common multiple of Alarm 1 (every 10 seconds), Alarm 2 (every 5 seconds) and Alarm 3 (every 4 seconds) is 20 seconds

Therefore, they will all sound at the same time again in the next 20 seconds

41*67/2=1373.5
