Answer 1

To determine how many more miles Trey must run to complete the race, let's analyze the information provided.

Assuming "14 of the race" refers to the total distance of the race in some unit (perhaps laps or segments), and considering that he has run 1.2 miles so far, we need to know the total length of the race to calculate the remaining distance.

However, since the options provided do not give a clear total distance for the race, we consider common race lengths. A common race is often 5K (which is approximately 3.1 miles) or 10K (approximately 6.2 miles), but these assumptions might not fit.

If we are to choose from the options given based solely on 1.2 miles completed:

1. Assuming the race distance is 5 miles:
   Remaining distance = 5 miles - 1.2 miles = 3.8 miles (not an option).

2. Assuming the race distance is 6 miles:
   Remaining distance = 6 miles - 1.2 miles = 4.8 miles (not an option).

3. Assuming the race distance is 10 miles:
   Remaining distance = 10 miles - 1.2 miles = 8.8 miles (not an option).

Since it's unclear what the total race distance is based on the information in the question, it seems there is no direct calculation that leads us directly to one of the choice options without making assumptions.

However, you might want to check if there's perhaps a typo in "14 of the race," which can lead to a total length for us to work with solidly. Too many variables without enough information do not allow for a definite choice.

If you have more details about the length of "14 of the race" or the complete distance of the race, I can give a more precise answer. Please share this information!
