Answer:

20 min

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference of this path = 1760 m

Speed of first horse = 440m/min.

Speed of 2nd horse = 352 m/min.

Speed of 3rd horse = 264 m/min.

so,Time taken by 1st horse to complete the path = (length of path/ its speed) 1760/440 = 4 min.

similarly, Time taken by 2nd horse = 1760/352 = 5 min.

and, time taken by 3rd horse = 1760/264 = 20/3 min.

Now, time after which they will meet at starting point = LCM(4,5,20/3) = 20 min.

So, After 20 minutes they will meet at starting point.
