Correct Answer: 83 m


Solution : According to the instructions given, the diagram is as follows –

Here, O is the starting point and G is the finishing point.
OA = 27m; AB = Pm; BC = 16m; CD = 72m; DG = 11m; GO = 11m
AB = CD + GO = 72 + 11 = 83 m

So, the value of P is 83m. Hence, the third option is correct.
