Explanation:

Step1: Calculate the success - rate

The total number of attempts in the first session is $3 + 9=12$. The success - rate is $\frac{9}{12}=\frac{3}{4}$.

Step2: Predict the number of goals in the next session

If there are 24 tries in the next session, the number of goals made is $24\times\frac{3}{4}=18$.

Answer:

Jason will make 18 goals.
