It asks how much longer will it take Tom to drive his regular trip, but nothing else is stated expect the distance and average speed... so I'm gonna with that! :D

Time = Distance/Speed
Time = 280 km / 80 km/h (divide 280/80, cancel out km)
Time = 3.5 hours

It will take Tom 3.5 hours to drive his regular trip.
