According to the given scenario, Raju is 140 metres far from his initial position.
Let us understand this with reference to the diagram provided below:-
The circle in the center depicts Raju. Now, Raju travels according to whatever is given the problem. His first stop is point B followed by A, then D and finally his destination is point C.
As given in the figure, the distance from his initial point to to C would be:-
80m + BC
BC = AD (Opposite sides of rectangle ABCD)
Therefore, BC = 60m
Hence, 80m + BC
= 80m + 60m
= 140m
This way Raju is 140m away from his initial point
