Two cars are traveling at the same speed. The first car drove 2, and the second 6 hours.

Two cars are traveling at the same speed. The first car drove 2, and the second 6 hours. The first car drove 320 km less than the second. How far has the second car traveled?

1. Let’s take the length of the path covered by the second car as x. The first car passed
(x – 320) kilometers.
2. For 1 hour, the first car drives (x – 320) / 2 kilometers, the second x / 6 kilometers.
3. Considering that the speeds of both cars are the same, we will make the equation:
x / 6 = (x – 320) / 2;
6x – 1920 = 2x;
4x = 1920;
x = 480;
Answer: the distance traveled by the second car is 480 kilometers.
