Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we will get how much time all three cyclists take to cover a circumference of 360 km\u00a0

So, the time taken for cyclist1 = 360\/48 = 7.5 days

So, the time taken for cyclist2 = 360\/60 = 6 days

So, the time taken for cyclist3 = 360/3

Here, LCM of 7.5, 6, 5 = 30

So, they will meet after 30 days.

Now, in 30 days, first cyclist will travel = 30\/7.5 = 4 rounds

In 30 days, second cyclist will travel = 30\/6 = 5 rounds

In 30 days, third cyclist will travel = 30\/5 = 6 rounds

So,\u00a0after 30 days, all the 3 cyclists will meet at starting point.

I hope this will help u

Speed of first, second and third cyclist are 48 km\/day, 60 km\/day and 72 km\/day. In terms of km\/hr,

48 km\/day = 48\/24 km\/h = 2 km\/h

60 km\/day = 60 km\/24 h

72 km\/day = 72\/24 km\/h = 3 km\/h

Time = Distance\/Speed

Time for 1st cyclist = 360\/2 = 180 hrs

Time for 2nd cyclist = 360\/(60\/24) = 144 hrs

Time for 3rd cyclist = 360\/3 = 120 hrs

L.C.M of 180, 144, 120 = 720 hrs

Total Time taken in days = 720\/24 = 30 days

Answer : 30

First, we will get how much time all three cyclists take to cover a circumference of 360 km 

So, the time taken for cyclist1 = 360/48 = 7.5 days

So, the time taken for cyclist2 = 360/60 = 6 days

So, the time taken for cyclist3 = 360/72  = 5 days

Here, LCM of 7.5, 6, 5 = 30

So, they will meet after 30 days.

Now, in 30 days, first cyclist will travel = 30/7.5 = 4 rounds

In 30 days, second cyclist will travel = 30/6 = 5 rounds

In 30 days, third cyclist will travel = 30/5 = 6 rounds

So, after 30 days, all the 3 cyclists will meet at starting point.
