Answer:

  • 311  1/9 or 311.11 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total distance be x.

We have:

  • 9/10 of x is 280 m.

Set this as equation and solve for x:

  • (9/10)x = 280
  • x = 280 ÷ 9/10
  • x =  280 × 10/9
  • x = 2800/9 = 311  1/9 or 311.11 m

Total distance from the park to the station is approximately 311 m.

Let that be d

  • 9/10 of d=280
  • 9/10d=280
  • d=280(10/9)
  • d=311.1m
