1. Find the remaining distance after the first kilometre

Remaining distance $= 9.8 - 1 = 8.8 \text{ km} = 8800 \text{ m}$

2. Calculate the number of additional 400 m blocks

Number of blocks $= \frac{8800}{400} = 22$

3. Calculate the total fare

Total fare $= 3.90 + 22 \times 0.25 = 3.90 + 5.50 = \char36{}9.40$

1. Find the remaining distance after the first 1 km

$\text{Remaining distance} = 9.8 - 1 = 8.8\text{ km}$

2. Determine the number of additional 1 km blocks charged

Since the charge is for every additional 1 km or less, we round up $8.8\text{ km}$ to the next whole number of blocks.
$\text{Number of additional blocks} = 9$

3. Calculate the total fare

$\text{Total fare} = \char36{}6.00 + 9 \times \char36{}0.50 = \char36{}6.00 + \char36{}4.50 = \char36{}10.50$
