    Three boys runs around a circular track and takes 24

    min, 40 min and 42 min respectively to complete the one round. When do they all come relatively to the same position as at a certain point of time in their path?
    A 600 min Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 840 min Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 420 min Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 300 min Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ∴  Required time = LCM of (24, 40 and 42) = 840 min Hence, after 840 min they all come relatively to the same position as at a certain point of time in their path.
