# GSM8K Problem 17
Two trains leave San Rafael at the same time. They begin traveling westward, both traveling for 80 miles. The next day, they travel northwards, covering 150 miles. What's the distance covered by each train in the two days?
Reason step by step, then give ONLY the final answer on the last line as \boxed{ANSWER}.

Proposed solution
To find the total distance covered by each train, we need to add the distance traveled on the first day to the distance traveled on the second day.
1. **Distance on the first day:** The trains travel westward for 80 miles.
2. **Distance on the second day:** The trains travel northward for 150 miles.
3. **Total distance:** Add the two distances together.
$$80 \text{ miles} + 150 \text{ miles} = 230 \text{ miles}$$
Since both trains travel the same distances, the distance covered by each train is 230 miles.
\boxed{230}
