Initially, -27 feet elevated to +164 feet.

Keep in mind, the sign.
Below: negative ; Above: positive.

$164 - ( - 27) = 191$
At trail's end, Paula gained 191 feet of elevation.

$\huge\text{Hey there!}$

$\huge\textbf{Equation:}$

$\mathbf{1 \dfrac{1}{5} \times \dfrac{x}{3} = \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\huge\textbf{Solve:}$

$\mathbf{1 \dfrac{1}{5} \times \dfrac{x}{3} = \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow \dfrac{1\times5+1}{5} \times \dfrac{x}{3} = \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow \dfrac{5 + 1}{5} \times \dfrac{x}{3} = \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow \dfrac{6}{5} \times \dfrac{x}{3} = \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\huge\textbf{Simplify it:}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow \dfrac{2}{5}x = \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\huge\textbf{Multiply \boxed{\bf \dfrac{5}{2}} to both sides:}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow \dfrac{5}{2}\times \dfrac{2}{5}x = \dfrac{5}{2}\times \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\huge\textbf{Simplify it:}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow x = \dfrac{5}{2}\times \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow x = \dfrac{5\times9}{2\times10}}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow x = \dfrac{45}{20}}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow x = \dfrac{45\div5}{20\div5}}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow x = \dfrac{9}{4}}$

$\mathbf{x \approx 2 \dfrac{1}{4}}$

$\huge\textbf{Therefore, your answer should be:}$

$\huge\boxed{\mathsf{x = }\frak{2 \dfrac{1}{4}}}\huge\checkmark$
