Answer: $7.5\ km$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Girl has traveled 6 km from her house

She has covered $\frac{4}{5}$ of the distance

Suppose the total distance is x

$\therefore 6=\dfrac{4x}{5}\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{30}{4}\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{15}{2}\ \text{km}\\\\\Rightarrow x=7.5\ \text{km}$
