Answer: (15th street, 14th Avenue)

Explanation:

Given the following :

Ping's residence = (3rd street, 6th Avenue)

Ari's residence = (21st street, 18th Avenue)

Gym location = 2/3 the distance of Ping's residence to Ari's residence

So, distance between Ping's home to Ari's home

Distance = (21st street, 18th Avenue) - (3rd street, 6th Avenue)

Distance = (21 - 3) street, (18 - 6) avenue

Distance between ping and Ari = (18th , 12th )

Gym distance = 2/3 of distance between ping and Ari

Gym distance = 2/3 × (18), 2/3 ×(12)

Gym distance = (12, 8)

Gym location = Ping's location + gym distance

Gym location = (3rd street, 6th Avenue) + (12th street, 8th Avenue)

Gym location = (15th street, 14th Avenue)
