Two runners Portheus and Zeus, are running around a circular track at different speeds such that they meet after regular time intervals. The length of the track (circumference) is meters. If they run in opposite directions, they meet at eight different points while if they run in the same direction it is observed that they meet at distinct points on the circular track. If they meet at intervals of minutes when they run in the same direction, how much time does the faster runner (Portheus) take to complete one round?
