Another math problem please?

Question

Find the distance between points having coordinates 11 and 2.

Does one know how i might do this? thanks =]

Answer 1

Look at this:

11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2

What's the distance between 11 and 2? It is 11 minus 2, thus 9. You can count it out, if you want. :D

Answer 2

We need more information: coordinates generally have two values for example an x and a y value unless your two points are on a horizontal or vertical line in which case the answer is a simple 11-2=9

However I think there is probably some more information in this question that you haven't put.
