Answer
To find the distance from the split to the hotel, we start with the total distance from Himeville to Mkomazana, which is 16 km. We then subtract the distance from Mkomazana to the hotel, which is 4.4 km:
extDistancetohotel=16extkm−4.4extkm=11.6extkm
Thus, the hotel is located 11.6 km after the split in the road.
