Answer:

23 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

So here we are trying to calculate Time which is Distance divided by Speed

Time = [tex]\frac{Distance}{Speed}[/tex]

Firstly, we have to calculate the Speed which is = [tex]\frac{720}{12}[/tex] = 60

This means that the speed is 60 miles per hour or 60 mph.

Then to find the total time we take the Distance and divide it by the Speed:

[tex]\frac{2100}{60}[/tex] = 35

So this means that his total trip took 35 hours so lets subtract 12 hours to get how many more hours: 35 - 12 = 23 hours
