Applying the Kepler's law of time,
T2/R3=T''2/R''3
==> T2/R3=(11T)2/R''3
R''3=T2/R3*(11T)2
Where T is the actual time taken by the earth
and T'' is the time taken by the planet which is 11 times the earth's time
R is the distance b/w the earth and the sun
R'' is the distance b/w the sun and the planet.
NOTE:- Don't take time in days but in years.
