To solve this problem, we need to calculate the difference in distance between Cincinnati and Chicago from Minneapolis.

Let's call the unknown difference x.

The given information tells us that the distance from Minneapolis to Chicago is 405 miles, and the distance from Minneapolis to Cincinnati is 692 miles.

So, the equation to represent the problem is:

Distance from Minneapolis to Cincinnati - Distance from Minneapolis to Chicago = x

Substituting the values, we get:

Calculating, we find:

287 miles = x

Therefore, Cincinnati is 287 miles farther from Minneapolis than Chicago.
