Answer: 8 hours

Step-by-step explanation: You would first multiply 2 hours by 4 mph, and get 8 miles. You would then subtract 8 miles from 26 miles, and have 18 miles left. You would now divide 18 miles by 3, as he is now traveling 3 miles per hour and needs to travel 18 miles. You would get 6 hours. You would now add 6 hours by the 2 hours initially traveled at 4 mph, and get 8 hours.
