- The farmer starts driving 5 km East.

- He turns right (towards South) and drives 6 km.

- Another right turn (towards West) leads him to drive 8 km.

- Finally, he turns right again (towards North) and drives 10 km before the tractor breaks down.

- To find the shortest distance to the garage, visualize the path:

- East 5 km, then South 6 km.

- West 8 km, then North 10 km.

- The positions create a right triangle, with one leg as 2 km.

- The shortest distance is the horizontal leg, which is 5 km back to the starting point.

Answer: Option:3 - 5 km
