If Miguel has driven 2/3 of the total distance in 4 hours, then he covered 1/3 of the distance in 4 hours. This means that it will take him 12 hours to cover the remaining 2/3 of the total distance (since 4 hours is equal to 1/3 of the total time and 4 x 3 = 12).
Therefore, the total time it will take Miguel to reach his destination is 4 hours (for the first 1/3 of the distance) + 12 hours (for the remaining 2/3 of the distance) = 16 hours.
None of the options provided matches the correct answer, as the total time should be 16 hours, not 8 hours.
