Assuming the mass distribution and average density of the super-Earth does not depart from our planet, then the radius will be increased by a factor of 10^(1/3)=2.154 approximately.
Use whatever radius of Earth that is given to you or you can find.
Calculate the radius of a “super- Earth” with 10 times the mass of Earth, using Earth data as a starting point.

Question says "using Earth data as a starting point" but does not give the radius of the earth.
It could be 6371km (from Google) or any other value with different accuracies.
So you will decide which value to use, you just have to state the source.
