Inorder for all of them reach at the same time at the same point. we have to take the LCM
which is 120.
for this distance the time taken by A ,B and K will be 4,3,2 but this does not fit in the questions.
so we take the next point where they may meet which is 240.
the time taken by A,B and K is 8,6 and 4 respectivly.
from this we get hat ther is a difference of 4 hours. Sol C.

given speeds as follows , A = 30kmph B = 40 kmph K = 60 kmph
As they meet Arun at same point the distance travelled is same.
for A, D = 30 * t
for B, D = 40* (t-2) as B takes 2hrs less to reach the same point,
For K D = 60 * (t-2-x) let x be the hrs when k starts after B, and he reaches the same point.
solving the 1 and 2 equation we t = 8 hrs and then we get x = 2hrs
so in total k starts after 2+2 = 4hrs
