    Answer: 0.395 km

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let Martin distance from the hole be X

    On first stroke, his golf ball traveled 4/5 of the distance to the hole. That is 4/5 X

    On his second stroke, the ball traveled 79 meters and went into the hole

    Total distance covered will be

    X = 79 + 4/5X

    X - 4/5X = 79

    X - 0.8X = 79

    0.2X = 79

    X = 79/0.2 = 395 meters

    How many kilometers from the hole was Martin when he started

    X = 395/1000 = 0.395 km
