The distance traveled is equal to the product of the speed and the time. For the first day,
d = (45 mile/h)(6 h) = 270 miles
On the second day,
d = (45 mile/h)(7 h) = 315 miles
The total distance traveled after 2 days is equal to 585 miles. Subtracting this value from the given distance will give us an answer of 265 miles.
