Answer:

He plans to run 12 miles

Explanation:

He plans to run 12 miles because if he ran 9 miles so far and that is 3/4 of his way then you would do 3 divided by 9 to get 3. Then you would add a 3 to nine because that 3 would be the last quarter t complete his run.

Answer:

He has to run a total of 12 miles and has 3 more miles to run

Explanation:

Well we know that 3/4 is 9 out of the total miles he is willing to run. We can divide 9 by 3 to get 1

Now we know 1/4 of his run is 3 miles

3*4= 12

He has to run a total of 12 miles and has 3 more miles to run
