Let x = distance he walked on the 1st day.
Also, x + 370 = distance he walked on the 2nd day (370meters more).

Then, Distance on 1st day + Distance on 2nd day = 1450 meters

x = 540 meters , distance he walked on 1st day.

For 2nd day,

Also, x + 370 = 540 + 370 = 910 meters , 2nd day.

Check,

Thank you,
