Answer: 30 miles

Step-by-step explanation: so first if Jayana is 30% of the way to achieving her goal and she has already ran 9 miles. You will have to convert 30% into a decimal. 30% is the same thing as 0.3 so, as that being said you will have to divide 9 by 0.3 because we are trying to find the miles.
