To find the total time it will take Miguel to reach his destination, we need to use the ratio of fractions.
Since Miguel has driven 23 out of the total distance in 4 hours, we can set up the ratio:
23/4 = x/total time
To solve for x, we can cross multiply:
23 * total time = 4 * x
Now we can divide both sides of the equation by 4 to solve for x:
total time = (4 * x)/23
So, the total time it will take Miguel to reach his destination is 4x/23 hours.
