[ ]
To find out how many more minutes Brian studied on Monday compared to Tuesday, we need to subtract the number of minutes he studied on Tuesday from the total number of minutes he studied on Monday and Tuesday combined.
Total minutes studied on Monday and Tuesday = 2 hours * 60 minutes/hour + 25 minutes = 120 minutes + 25 minutes = 145 minutes
Minutes studied on Monday - Minutes studied on Tuesday = Total minutes studied on Monday and Tuesday - Minutes studied on Tuesday
Minutes studied on Monday - 55 minutes = 145 minutes - 55 minutes
Minutes studied on Monday = 90 minutes
Therefore, Brian studied 90 minutes on Monday.
So, he studied 90 - 55 = <<90-55=35>>35 more minutes on Monday than on Tuesday. Answer: \boxed{35}.
