Two runners begin running laps around a one-mile track at the same time. The first runner completes a mile every 6 minutes and the second runner completes a mile every 8 minutes. After how long will the first runner lap the second runner?
+36916 At 24 mins the will be together again at the starting line.....
the slower runner will be beginning their 4th mile
the faster runner will be a mile further and beginning their 5 th mile and will 'lap' the slower......
Maybe LCM 6, 8 = 24
