two persons are moving in a circle their speed ratio is n:1, they meet 5th time and again at 17th time. which cant be value of n?(not remb the quest exactly)
A)2
b)3
c)4
d)6

• the value n cant be 6 as graphically the meeting points would come out different .
  
  i think the ans is 6
  
  the total meeting points(mp) in a circle will be n-1(from ratio of velocities even it is not mentioned,faster will have more velocity=nk)
  
  when n=2 mp=1 5th and 17 coincide
  
  when n=6 mp5 5th will coincide with 10th 15th 20th.........
  
  and 17th will coincide with 2th 7th 12th ..............
  
  ans = 6
