Let the distance be x miles

Time = Distance / speed

Time taken by Mike to go to his friend's house = x / 40 hours

Time taken by him to return = x / 45 hours

Total time = x / 40 + x / 45 = 4 hours

= 9x + 8x = 1440 miles

17x = 1440

= x = 1440 ÷ 7

= x = 84.706

Time taken to return home = 84.706 /45= 1.882 hours .

Therefore , Mike took 1.882 hours to reach home .
