SolutioN :-

 \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: \sf Since \:  \large \frac{1}{3}  \normalsize\: of \: the \: journey \: is \: left,

  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: \sf \therefore1 -  \large \frac{1}{3}   =   \large\frac{2}{3}  \normalsize \: of \: the \: journey \: is \: completed.

 \sf Given :\:  \sf \frac{2}{3} \: of \: the \: journey \:  = 10 \: km
