Answer:

375km

Explanation:

The tourist has already covered 3% of the journey.

So the remaining distance to be covered is 64% f the total journey.

(100% - 36% = 64%)

Therefore 64% of the journey = 240km

Then 100% of the journey:

y km --> 100%

240 km --> 64%

Total length of the route = 240 km * (100/64) = 375km
