Answer:
The distance Puis still have to travel to reach his destination is 72 km.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given parameters about Puis journey are
Distance covered by Puis = 1/4 of total distance
Distance remaining for Puis to complete the journey = 3/4 of the journey
Distance of Puis from the third-way (central) mark = 24 km
Therefore;
Distance from 1/4 of journey to 1/2 of journey = 24 km
Hence, 1/2 - 1/4 = 1/4 of the journey = 24 km
Which gives Total distance covered by Puis = 24 km
Total distance of the journey = 4 × 24 km = 96 km
The distance Puis still have to travel to reach his destination = 96 - 24 = 72 km.
