Not sure if my way is correct, but I got the answer. The speed of one student relative to the other is 4-3=1 round in two minutes(120 seconds). Then time taken to cover 1/3rd of the circular track by one student relative to the other is 120/3= 40 seconds. Thus the answer is 40 seconds.

Ya .. relative speed is the nice approach . Good But dont u think that after 2by3 revolution (Relative) he will be able to see his friend again which will get answer 80 seconds.???
