    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.
