To run a mile, Jamal must run 4 laps around the track. His goal is to run 3 miles. Jamal has run 9 laps so far.

1 mile = 4 laps

3 miles = 12 laps

9/4 = x /1

9/4 = 2.25

he has run 2.25 miles = 9 laps

he needs to run 0.75 miles = 3 laps

step-by-step explanation:

because first you have to add the 4x, 9x, and the 7x together and you get 20x and then you add the last numbers up and you get 5and then you put the subtraction sign in there and that's how you get the answer.
