    After 315 minutes both person will be together

    Explanation:

    We have given that first person takes 21 minutes to complete the one round and second person takes 45 minutes to complete the one round

    We have to find the time at which both person will be together

    That time will be equal to LCM of both time

    That is LCM of 21 and 45

    Factor of 21 = 3*7

    Factor of 45 = 3*3*5

    So LCM will be 3*3*5*7=315 minutes

    So after 315 minutes both person will be together
