   My answer is ‘C’.

   The reason is: the distance between point F and G is 3^11, which is the distance between any point. This makes point E as origin (0) and D as [-(3^11)].

   The distance is actually 2*(3^11)

   –> 3^12 – 3^11 = 3^11(3 – 1) = 2*(3^11)

   thus E = 3^11 – 2*(3^11) = -3^11

   and D = -3^11 – 2*(3^11) = -3*(3^11) = -3^12

   Thus D
