# 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}.

To find the total distance covered by each train over the two days, we simply need to add the distances traveled on the first day and the second day.

1.  **First Day:** The problem states that both trains travel westward for 80 miles.
    *   Distance = 80 miles

2.  **Second Day:** The problem states that both trains travel northward for 150 miles.
    *   Distance = 150 miles

3.  **Total Distance:** We add the distances from both days together.
    *   Total Distance = 80 miles + 150 miles
    *   Total Distance = 230 miles

Since both trains traveled the same distance on both days, each train covered 230 miles in total.

\boxed{230}
