Answer:

65 miles

Explanation:

The distance travelled till 150 miles is

260 - 150 = 90

But as he walks back although his distance increase his displacement from initial point decrease.

Distance moved from 150 mile post to 175 mile post is

175 - 150 = 25

As he walks backwards in second time in consideration with first time to calculate the displacement we need to substract 90 from 25,

So displacement is 65 miles
