6 cars- M, N, O, P, Q and R are parked in a straight line not necessarily in the same order. Distance between each car is successive multiple of 3 but not necessarily in the order. The distance between car N and car O is 36m and no car is parked between them. The distance between car M and car O is 102m. Car R is 99m to the right of car N. Only one car is parked between car O and car R. Car M is parked to the immediate left to car P. The distance between car M and car P is 12m more than the distance between car P and car N. The distance between R and M is more N. The distance between R and M is more than 60m. The distance between car P and car Q is 93m. If car Q moves 20m to the north then takes a left turn and moves 50m then again takes a left turn and moves for 10m and stops at point Z. Car A is 16m to the west of point Z. Car A moves 66m towards west and stops at point Y. What is the distance between car P and car R?
