A certain clothing store

A cash register in a certain clothing store is the same distance from two dressing rooms in the store. If the distance between the two dressing rooms in 16 feet, which of the following could be the distance between the cash register and either dressing room?

I. 6 feet
II. 12 feet
III. 24 feet

I only
II only
III only
I and II
II and III

Thanks
