Anita and Sunita two sisters cycle around a circular park every weekend.
On a particular day they both start cycling together at the same time at 7 a.m. but with different speeds.
Anita started at a speed of 8 km/hr and Sunita at the speedof 12 km /hr.
Assuming that their speeds remained the same through out while cycling around the park that has diameter 7 7/11 km
1) time taken my anita to complete a round
2) time taken my Sunita to complete a round
3)They both will meet again at the starting point after
4)Time at which they both will meet

thi ss rhe right ans hrvrhdhrf
Given: Time when Anita and Sunita start cycling together at the same time = 7 am
Anita's speed = 8 km/hr
Sunita's speed = 12 km/hr
The diameter of the park = 7 7/11 km
To find: 1) Time taken by Anita to complete a round
2) Time taken by Sunita to complete a round
3)They both will meet again at the starting point after
4)Time at which they both will meet
Solution: The diameter of the park 7 7/11 km can be written as 84/11 km.
Therefore, the distance travelled by both
= 2πr = 2 × 22/7 × 84(/11 × 2)
= 24 km.
1) Time taken by Anita to complete a round = distance/speed
= 24/8 hr
= 3 hrs.
2) Time taken by Sunita to complete a round = 24/12 hr
= 2 hrs.
3) For this question, we need to find the LCM of the time taken by both sisters to complete a round, that is, 3 and 2.
The LCM of 3 and 2 is 6.
Therefore, they both will meet again at the starting point after 6 hrs.
4) The time at which they will both meet at 7 am + 6 hours = 1 pm.
Answer: 1) 3 hours
2) 2 hours
3) 6 hours
4) 1 pm
