This is a horrible question. The cardinal directions don't have a central coordinate so these directions are all relative. Where I am sitting right now can conceivably be the furthest in any direction that I have ever been.
the central coordinate is where the prime meridian meets the equator. i think most people will figure this out just by looking at a map.
it's not a horrible question. north means closest to the pole, south means closest to the other pole, east and west are relative to the international date line or prime meridian. if you want to say the international date line or prime meridian are arbitrary choices i'm not going to disagree with you, but it's certainly possible to have a furthest east location from the prime meridian.
for me, furthest south and east were both in australia (melbourne and sydney, respectively?) (and i've flown over the international date line but i assume that doesn't count), furthest west was hawaii, and furthest north was probably somewhere near groningen, the netherlands. closest to the middle (e/w) was on the prime meridian in england, closest to the middle (n/s) was the northern mariana islands.

Based on most maps and the international date line, wouldn't Melbourne, Australia be your furthest point east, not west (regardless that you probably traveled west to get there)?
