Aloha !

The smaller distance is 32 km

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that two distances are in the ratio 15:8

Let the ratio be x

Larger distance = 15x

Smaller distance = 8x

We are given that larger distance is 60 km

So, 15x=60

x=4

So, Smaller distance =8x=8(4)=32 km

Hence The smaller distance is 32 km
