To determine John's current position, we need to find the distance between his current location and the two markers mentioned (166 mi marker and 120 mi marker).
To find John's current position:
1. Subtract the distance of the 120 mi marker from the distance of the 166 mi marker:
166 miles - 120 miles = 46 miles
2. John is currently 46 miles away from the 166 mi marker.
Therefore, John's current position is 46 miles from the 166 mi marker.
