Answer:


\[(3)/(4)\] miles

Explanation:

The relay team consists of 4 people.

Total distance covered by 4 people = 3 miles

Each person runs the same distance.

This means that each person will run a distance equal to:


\[(distance)/(persons)\]


\[=(3)/(4)\]

So each person in the relay team of 4 will run a distance of
\[(3)/(4)\] miles to cover the entire length of 3 miles.
