Step 1 :Given a rectangular field with length 67 m and width 32 m.
Step 2 :The distance from A to C is the diagonal of the rectangle, which can be calculated using the Pythagorean theorem: \(\sqrt{67^2 + 32^2} \approx 74.2 \) m.
Step 3 :The distance from A to B to C is simply the sum of the lengths of the two sides of the rectangle: \(67 + 32 = 99\) m.
Step 4 :The difference between these two distances is the answer to the question: \(99 - 74.2 = 24.8\) m.
Step 5 :Final Answer: The distance from A to C is \(\boxed{24.8}\) m shorter than the distance from A to B to C.
