Two motorcyclists left the two cities at the same time. One of them moved at an average speed of 70 km / h and drove 140 km to the meeting, while the other moved at an average speed of 65 km / h. Find the distance between cities.

One motorcyclist drove 140 km at a speed of 70 km / h before the meeting, let’s calculate his travel time:
140: 70 = 2 (hours).
This means that the second motorcyclist was also on the road for 2 hours at a speed of 65 km / h, let’s calculate the distance he traveled:
65 * 2 = 130 (km).
Let’s calculate the distance between cities: 130 + 140 = 270 (km).
Answer: the distance between cities is 270 km.
