Answer:

To find the number of hours Miguel drove, we need to divide the total distance he traveled by his speed.

distance = speed * time

We know the distance (84.8 miles) and the speed (53 mph), so we can solve for time:

time = distance / speed

time = 84.8 miles / 53 mph

time = 1.59 hours

So, Miguel drove for 1.59 hours in his new car.
