Step measure of 1 st  Boy =63cm 

Step measure of 2 nd  Boy =70cm 

Step measure of 3 rd  Boy =77cm 

LCM of 63,70,77 :

\begin{array}{|c|c|}\hline 2 & {63,70,77} \\ \hline 3 & {63,35,77} \\ \hline 3 & {21,35,77} \\ \hline 5 & {7,35,77} \\ \hline 7 & {7,7,11} \\ \hline 11 & {1,1} \\ \hline\end{array}

\begin{array}{l}{\text { L.C.M. of } 63,70 \text { and } 77=7 \times 9 \times 10 \times 11=6930 \mathrm{cm} .} \\ {\text { Therefore, the minimum distance is } 6930 \mathrm{cm} .}\end{array}
