Two events occur in an inertial system K at the same time but 4 km apart. What is the time difference measured in a system K' moving parallel to these two events when the distance separation of the events is measured to be 5 km in K'?

Two events occur in an inertial system K at the same time but 10 km apart. What is the time difference measured in a system K' moving parallel to these two events when the distance separation of the events is measured to be 12 km in K' ?

Two events occur in an inertial system at the same time, but 6855 km apart. However in another inertial system these two events are observed to be 11525 km apart. What is the time difference between the two events in this second inertial system?
