Question

Three horses run round a circular path, 1760metres in circumference, at the rate of 440 m,
352m and 264 m per minute. When will they again be together at the starting point?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

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
