The correct answer is: 53 units

From diagram mid-point of AB must lie on the plane
M2+62,3+72,4+824,5,6
AB is perpendicular to the required plane
Direction ratios of AB=<4,4,4>=<1,1,1>
Equation of the required plane is
1x-4+1y-5+1z-6=0
x+y+z=15
The perpendicular distance from the origin to the plane =0+0+0-153=53 units
