To determine how many more miles Trey must run to complete the race, we need to know the total distance of the race. However, the information provided states he has completed 14 "of the race," which seems incomplete or unclear.

Assuming that "14" represents the total number of miles in the race, we can use that information:

Total distance of the race: 14 miles
Distance already run: 1.2 miles

To find the remaining distance, we subtract the distance already run from the total distance:

Remaining distance = Total distance - Distance already run
Remaining distance = 14 miles - 1.2 miles
Remaining distance = 12.8 miles

Since 12.8 miles is not one of the options provided (3.6 miles, 0.3 miles, 5.2 miles, 1.6 miles), there may be an error or misunderstanding in the question.

Could you clarify the total distance of the race or confirm if "14" refers to something else?
