Answer: 5.5hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Total distance = 226miles

Total time = 7 hours

Let b represent total time spent while walking.

Distance (walking) = 4b

Distance ( riding) = 40(7-b)

Total distance 226 = 4b + 40(7-b)

226 = 4b + 280 - 40b

226 = 280-36b

b = 54/36

b = 1.5hours

Amount of time spent walking = 1.5hours

Amount of time spent riding = 7-1.5 = 5.5hours

Amount of time spent on bicycle = 5.5hours
