    Given that the two watchtowers spotted fire in the distance and watch tower 2 was 27 miles from the fire. Assuming that the fire is in the middle of both watch towers, then the distance between the two watch towers will be given by:

    distance=[distance of fire from watch tower 1]+[distance of fire from watch tower 2]

    =27+27

    =53 miles
