# Answer = 22.36 m


# Explanation-

Look at figure for reference.


Consider a cube with side length s.

If an ant is at point A, farthest point from A will be C.


Observing from the figure,

It would have to crawl from A to B to C.


From second figure we'll know that

Using Pythagorean theorem,

AC^2 = AD^2 + CD^2

AC^2 = s^2 + (2s)^2

AC^2 = 5s^2

AC = √5s

AC = 10×√5

AC = 22.36 m


Ant will have to crawl for 22.36 m to reach farthest point.
