Thank you so much it really helped me a lot, but I got confused again with one further down the page because it has the post office going in two different directions and confused me. Can you help me see where I went wrong? The underline section is where I get confused.
The grocery store is 40 miles west of pet store. The pet store is 153 miles west of hamburger joint.
The post office is 52.7 miles east of magic shop. The post office is 44.2 miles west of the hamburger joint.
The hamburger joint is 33.1 miles south of the party store. How far apart are the grocery and hamburger joint?

This question has a lot of unnecessary information to try and confuse you. Draw out a rough diagram and double check that everything is where it's supposed to be.
