[GMAT math practice question]

The alarm of a certain clock rings every 15 minutes. If the alarm first rings at 12:15, when will it ring for the 24th time?

A. 17:30
B. 18:00
C. 18:30
D. 19:00
E. 19:30

One hour has four 15-minute intervals. The clock rings 4 times every hour. Since it rings the 1st time at 12:15, the 5th time it will ring is at 13:15, the 9th time at 14:15, the 13th time at 15:15, the 17th time at 16:15, the 21st time at 17:15 and the 25th time at 18:15. So the 24th time must ring 15 minutes prior to 18:15, or at 18:00.

Answer: B
