Let E be the ellipse . For any three distinct points P, Q and Q' on E, let M(P, Q) be the mid-point of the line segment joining P and Q, and M(P, Q') be the mid-point of the line segment joining P and Q'. Then the maximum possible value of the distance between M(P, Q) and M(P, Q'), as P, Q and Q' vary on E, is .
