Answer / thilak desingh

Guys, there can be two ways of interpreting,

1) How often they meet at any point
2) How often they meet at starting point

1) LCM { L/a-b , L/b-c} = 60 seconds

2) LCM { L/a , L/b , L/c } ~ 120 seconds

three friends a,b,c run around a circular track of length 120m at a speed of 5,7,15m/sec respectiv..

Answer / manish pal

Soln: When two people are running in the same direction the relative speed is the difference in speeds of the two people.

In this case A=5 B=7 C=15

So relative speed of B wrt A is 7-5 = 3m/s
Relative speed of c wrt to a is 15-3 =15m/s

Therefore relative distances will be:
B wrt A is 120/2 =60
C wrt to A 120/12 =12

So they have to bridge this distance of 60 and 12 between them which is the LCM of 60 and 12 which is 60.

so ans is 60 sec

three friends a,b,c run around a circular track of length 120m at a speed of 5,7,15m/sec respectiv..

Answer / nisha

Time taken by 'a' to cover a circular track = 120/5 = 24
seconds
Time taken by 'b' to cover a circular track = 120/7 seconds
Time taken by 'c' to cover a circular track = 120/15 = 8
seconds

LCM of 24, 8, 120/7 = 120/7seconds = ~ 17 seconds

So the three friends will meet after ~17 seconds
