Answer:
He has driven 16 miles so far
Step-by-step explanation:
The unknown in your equation is the total length of Trey's drive, which we will call "x".
From the problem statement, you know that 12 is three-fourths of x so set up the following equation and solve for "x":
3/4(x) = 12
multiply both sides of the equation by 4/3 to isolate "x":
(4/3)(3/4)(x) = (12)(4/3)
therefore
x = (12)(4)/(3) = 16
