always take lcm for this type of question ..
LCM is the only no which can devide and gives no remainder ..it means all runners completed their rounds
lcm of 200 300 360 450 = 1800 sec
or 30 min

They meet after 30 minutes at the starting point for first time.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Number of runners = 4
Time they took to complete one round is given by
200 sec, 300 sec, 360 sec, 450 sec.
So, We need to find the time they meet at the starting point for first time.
L.C.M. of 200, 300, 360, 450 = 1800 sec
1800 sec = 30 minutes
Hence, they meet after 30 minutes at the starting point for first time.
