    Question

    Two cyclists, A and B, are riding on a circular track.

    Cyclist A completes one lap in 24 minutes, while Cyclist B completes one lap in 30 minutes. If they start at the same time from the same point, after how many minutes will they meet again at the starting point?
    A 120 minutes Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 144 minutes Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 180 minutes Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 240 minutes Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E 300 minutes Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    To determine when they will meet again at the starting point, we need to find the least common multiple (LCM) of their lap times. LCM of 24 and 30 = 120 Therefore, they will meet again at the starting point after 120 minutes. Answer: A) 120 minutes
