In a daily morning walk three persons step off together. their steps measure 75 cm, 80 cm and 85 cm respectively. What is the minimum distance each should walk so that thay can cover the distance in complete steps ?

Correct Answer: 204 m

Explanation:

To find the minimum distance, we have to get the LCM of 75, 80, 85


Now, LCM of 75, 80, 85 = 5 x 15 x 16 x 17 = 20400


Hence, the minimum distance each should walk so that thay can cover the distance in complete steps = 20400 cms = 20400/100 = 204 mts.
