We have that point P represents the largest integer value that is less than a square root of 223:


√(223)=14.93

The integer is 14. Then P=14.

Let point Q represent the largest integer value that is less than a square root of 68. Then:


√(68)=8.24

The integer is 8. Then q=8.

The distance between P and Q is given by:

P-Q= 14-8= 6

Hence, the distance is given by 6 units.
