First, we will get how much time all three cyclists take to cover a circumference of 360 km
So, the time taken for cyclist1 = 360/60 =6days
So, the time taken for cyclist2 = 360/72 = 5 days
So, the time taken for cyclist3 = 360/90 = 4 days
Here, LCM of 6,5,4=60
So, they will meet after 60 days.
Now, in 30 days, first cyclist will travel = 60/6=10 rounds
In 30 days, second cyclist will travel = 60/5=12 rounds
In 30 days, third cyclist will travel = 60/4 = 15 rounds
So, after 60 days, all the 3 cyclists will meet at starting point.

Answer:

So,the time taken by the Cyclists 1=360/60=6 days
So the time taken by the Cyclists 2=360/72=5 days
So,the time taken by cyclists 3=360/90=4 days
So, the LCM of 6,5 and 4 =60
So,they will meet after 60 days.
Now,in 30 days first cyclist will travel=60/6=10 rounds
In 30 days second cyclist will travel=60/4=12 rounds
