From two cities, two trains, a passenger and a fast one, set off to meet each other at the same time.

From two cities, two trains, a passenger and a fast one, set off to meet each other at the same time. They met after 6 hours. The speed of the passenger train is 74 km / h. And the fast train is 96 km / h. What is the distance between cities?

1. Let’s determine how many kilometers a passenger train will travel in six hours if it moves at a speed of 74 kilometers per hour:

74 * 6 = 444 (km).

2. Find out how far a fast train will travel in six hours if it moved at a speed of 96 kilometers per hour:

96 * 6 = 576 (km).

3. Let’s find the distance between the cities, if the passenger train traveled 444 kilometers before meeting the fast train, and the fast train traveled 576 kilometers:

444 + 576 = 1020 (km).

Answer: the distance between cities is 1020 kilometers.
