Sean is driving to visit his friend in another state. in the first hour, he travels 1/5 of the total distance. second hour he travels 34miles. if he has 194 more miles to go, how far apart do the friends live?

Let total distance in miles Sean needs to cover to visit his friend be =

On first hour distance traveled in miles is =

Distance left to cover  after first hour =

On second hour distance traveled = 34 miles

Distance to still left to be covered = 194 miles

Total distance to be covered after first hour will be = = 228 miles

Thus, the equation can be given as:
