Let t hours be the time it took for Hany to drive from home to work.

 

Let x km be the length of his route to work.

 

We have the following relations according to the information given in the question:

x70=t+160x75=t160

 

Subtracting, we have x1050=130 so x=35.

 

His route to work is 35 km long.
