The width of the Circumference River is 3100 meters. The Square Root Bridge spans the Circumference River. If 1/8 of the bridge stands on one side of the river, and 1/10 of the bridge is on the other side, how long is the Square Root Bridge?

3100 = 1/1 - 1/8 - 1/10

#

31/40 = 3100m

#

1/40 = 100m

#

40 x 100 = 4000m
