To find the distance, we need to calculate 73% of the total distance.
Let's assume the total distance is represented by the variable 'x'.
To find 73% of x, we can use the formula:
(73/100) * x = 2.6 km
We can solve for x by dividing both sides of the equation by (73/100):
x = (2.6 km) / (73/100)
To simplify the equation, we can multiply by the reciprocal of (73/100), which is (100/73):
x = (2.6 km) * (100/73)
Now, we can calculate the value of x:
x = 2.6 km * (100/73)
x ≈ 3.5616 km
Therefore, the total distance, x, is approximately 3.5616 km.
