After the first hour of work, he has distributed newspapers to 2 / 5 * 200 = 80 homes. The number of homes that still need newspapers is 200 - 80 = 120. Two hours later, the number of homes he has distributed newspapers to is 60 / 100 * 120 = 72 homes. The number of homes he still needs to distribute newspapers to is 120 - 72 = 48 homes. So, the answer is 48.
