A truck travelled at a constant speed for 6 hours. Then, it decreased itd speed by 13 mph for the remaining 228 miles. If the total distance was 876 miles, how long did it take to travel the remaining 228 miles

Time taken to travel remaining 228 miles = 2.4 hours.

Explanation:

Total distance = 876 miles.

Distance traveled after speed reduction = 228 miles

So, distance traveled before = 876 - 228 = 648 miles.

Time taken for this = 6 hours.

Speed before speed reduction = 648/6 = 108 mph.

Speed after speed reduction = 108 - 13 = 95 mph

Time taken to travel remaining 228 miles = 228/95 = 2.4 hours.
