The second one take 14 steps before they again take the right step together.
Their odd step will be right while even step will be left. So both of them must have taken mininum number of even steps at the same time before taking right step together which is possible when first walker have taken 8(even) steps and second walker have taken 14 steps (even)

The second one take 4 steps (i.e) 7 - 14 - 21 - 28 to take right step (because even numbers are right steps ) at the mean time first one takes 4 - 8 - 12 - 16 - 20 - 24 - 28
