okay thanks for ur answer
Now,
40 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 5,
42 = 2 × 3 × 7
45 = 3 × 3 × 5
∴ LCM (40, 42, 45) = 2 × 3 × 5 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 7 = 30 × 12 × 7 = 210 × 12 = 2520
Minimum distance each should walk 2520 cm. so that, each can cover the same distance in complete

We have to find the LCM of 40 cm, 42 cm and 45 cm to get the required minimum distance. Because we are asked the minimum distance
Now,
40 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 5,
42 = 2 × 3 × 7
45 = 3 × 3 × 5
∴ LCM (40, 42, 45) = 2 × 3 × 5 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 7 = 30 × 12 × 7 = 210 × 12 = 2520
Minimum distance each should walk 2520 cm. so that, each can cover the same distance in complete steps .
