Step-by-step explanation:
Since the three persons start walking together.
∴, The minimum distance covered by each of them in complete steps = LCM of the measures of their steps
=LCM(40,42,45)
40=2×2×2×5=23×5
42=2×3×7
45=3×3×5=32×5
⇒LCM(40,42,45)=23×32×5×7=2520
⇒ Each person should walk a minimum distance of 2520 cm in complete steps.
