If Ayman has driven 30 miles so far (three - fifths of the way home) you can calculate what is the total length of her drive using the following steps-

x total length three - fifths of the way home = 30 miles

3/5 of x = 30 miles

3 / 5 * x = 30 /*5/ 3

x = 30 * 5/3

x = 50 miles

The total length of her drive is 50 miles.
