But how you can choose the distance of 25, 40, 60, 90 by yourself?

@All.
Read the question he walked through the straight line so the people who are standing south and east should become as a straight line so to become straight Line they has to move 30 degrees soo dev (60 + 30 = 90], Pintu has to move 30 degrees (30 + 30) so.
Nilesh (25) + Ankur (10) + Dev (90) + Pinku (60) = 215km.
Hope this helps.

First, he starts from Nilesh and covered 25 m and he met Ankur and after that, he covered 40 m, and then he met Kumar.
So, the total distance covered by now is (25+40=65), and now he met Dev and covered 60m, so the total distance by now is 65 + 60 = 125m, now in the last he has to met Pintu so he has to go to Kumar and cover 60m again, so now the total distance is 125 + 60 = 185m, now he met Pintu and covered 30m.
Then the final distance he covered is 185 + 30 = 215m.
