Shilpa and Radhika started walking from two different points, 'A' and 'B', respectively. Shilpa walks 4 km North, turns to the East and walks 6 km, again turns to the North and walks 8 km, and finally turns to the East and walks 10 km to reach point 'C'. Similarly, Radhika walks 4 km North, and turns to the West and walks 6 km, and finally turns to the North and walks 8 km and meets Shilpa at point 'C'. What is the shortest distance between Shilpa's and Radhika's starting points?

The shortest distance between Shilpa's and Radhika's starting points = 6km + 10km + 6km.
The shortest distance between Shilpa and Radhika = 22km.
Hence, the correct answer is "22km".
