<PRE><B>Question 1013966</B>
.
if the distance between towns A and B is 1350 km and the distance A and C in the same direction is approximately two-fifths of this, what is the approximate distance of the towns B and C
------------------------------------------------------------


The distance |AC| = {{{(2/5)*1350}}} = 540 km.


Hence, the distance |BC| is 1350 - 540 = 810 km.
