The distance between the two stations is 85 km. Two trains left them simultaneously to meet one another. They met when the first train traveled 41 km. Which one traveled from the trains before the meeting more and by how much?

1) Let us find out what distance the second train covered before the meetings, if it is known that the first train covered a distance of 41 km, and the distance between stations was 85 km.

85 – 41 = 44 km.

2) We find out how much longer the second train traveled before meeting the first train, if we learned that the second train traveled 44 km, and the first traveled 41 km.

44 – 41 = 3 km.

Answer: the second train passed 3 km more before meeting the first train.
