Math Problem Statement
Akshay and Bobby are running on a circular track of radius 147 metres. Bobby can complete a round in 84 seconds and the speed of Akshay is half the speed of Bobby. They started simultaneously towards each other from two points 294 metres diametrically opposite on the circular path. If they first meet at a point which is between the two points from where they started their race, after how much time from the start do they meet at that point for the fifth time?
