Answer:

The answer is 0.

Explanation:

Roberto and his dad returns back exactly the same spot after the long trip to town B and short trip from town B. Despite, they made 70km road while travelling, they exactly didn't made any displacement at the end of the trip. Because, they are exactly at the same spot that they started.
