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

1. Since the speed of each of the trains and the time they spent on the way to the meeting are known from the condition of the problem, we determine the length of the path of each of them.
a) 74 * 6 = 444 kilometers.
b) 96 * 6 = 576 kilometers.
2. Let’s calculate how many kilometers there are between cities.
444 + 576 = 1020 kilometers.
Answer: 1020 kilometers.
