Question 1159973
.
<pre>

Let x be the TOTAL distance.

Then from the condition you have this equation


    {{{x/3}}} - {{{x/4}}} = 24.


Multiply both sides by 12


    4x - 3x = 24*12  kilometres

    x       = 288    kilometres


The entire distance is 288 kilometres.


Pius just traveled one quarter of it, i.e.  288/4 = 72 kilometers.


Hence, he still has to travel  288 - 72 = 216 kilometres to reach his destination.     <U>ANSWER</U>
