SOLUTION: One pendulum ticks 57 times in 58 sec and another 608 times in 609 sec. If they started simultaneously then find the time after which they will tick together.

One pendulum ticks 57 times in 58 sec and another 608 times in 609 sec.
If they started simultaneously then find the time after which they will tick together.
:
The 1st one ticks 58/57 = 1.01754386 sec
The 2nd one ticks 609/608 = 1.001644737 sec
Find the LCM which is an integer
1.01754386*1.001644737*10^9 = 1,019,217,452 secs they will tick together

Not 100% sure about this one. Let me know if I screwed this up. ankor@att.net
