Answer:

3.5 km between communities AC

Step-by-step explanation:

The idea is to find a common position for all the communities to locate the well

Kindly find attached a rough sketch of the problem for your reference.

Given that

AB=5km

AC=7km

From the diagram we can see that for all three communities to travel equal distance to the common well, the well has to be situated at 3.5km between communities AC.

Also, from the diagram the location of well is the intersection between the diagonals of the rectangular shape.
