The question doesn't tell us where on earth the park is, so there's no way we can account for the convergence of the meridians, since the effect is less at the equator and most near the poles. So consider it a straight x-y problem on a plane.

If the park is placed at the origin of coordinates (0.0),
Flor lives at the point ( -3, 4 ), and Joey lives at the point ( 2, 8 ).

x-difference = 5, y-difference = 4

Distance between the points
= square root of [ (x-difference)2 + (y-difference)2 ]

= square root of (52 + 42 )
= square root (25 + 16 )
= square root (41)
= 6.403 miles (rounded)

Did jesus like kids more then adoults troue or flors?

Doesn't matter if He liked kids more or adults more. He came down to restore the fallen glory of humankind and make them Kings again. And He did it perfectly. So, answering your question, He loves both kids and adults. There is no partiality in Him. By the way, all kids become adults one day (I'm sorry, if you didn't know that)
