Nothing follows.

Defective post.

------------- 

Use the triangle inequality.


All what is longer or equal to the sum 109 + 91 = 200 miles is not possible.


All what is shorter or equal to the difference  109 - 91 = 18 miles is not possible.

For your info:   when the post asks :  "which of following . . . "  and nothing follows  -  then the post is  defective  by the definition.
