On a baseball diamond, the distance from home plate to the pitcher's mound is 60.5 feet. From the pitcher's mound to second base is 66.8 feet.

A. How far is it from home plate to second base?

B. The distance from home plate to first base is 90 feet. How much less is this than the distance from home plate to second base?

Please show your work.

Home plate -> pitchers mound = 60.5 feet Pitchers mound -> second base = 66.8 feet Home plate -> first base = 90 feet
A. Home plate -> second base = 60.5 + 66.8 = 127,3 feet B. 90 feet is less than 127,3 feet by 127,3 - 90 = 37,3 feet.
