A walks around a circular field at the rate of one round per hour while B runs around it at the rate of six rounds per hour . The start in the same direction from the same point a 7.30 a.m.   They shall first cross each other at  :


Options:
A .  7.42 a.m.
B .  7.48 a.m.
C .  8.10 a.m.
D .  8.30 a.m.
Answer: Option A

Since A and B move in the same direction along the circle, so they will first meet each  other when there is a difference of one round  between he two.

Relative speed of A and B = (6 - 1) = 5 rounds per hour.

Time taken to complete one round  at this speed = `1/5`hr.  = 12 min.
