To determine which day Carlos ran the farthest, we need to compare the distances he ran on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Let's do some calculations:
On Monday, Carlos ran 1/8 of a mile.
On Wednesday, Carlos ran 5/6 of a mile.
On Friday, Carlos ran 3/8 of a mile.
To compare these fractions, we need to convert them to a common denominator. The least common multiple (LCM) of 8 and 6 is 24. Let's convert the fractions:
1/8 = 3/24
5/6 = 20/24
3/8 = 9/24
Now we have all the fractions with a common denominator of 24. We can see that Carlos ran 3/24 of a mile on Monday, 20/24 of a mile on Wednesday, and 9/24 of a mile on Friday.
Comparing the fractions, we can conclude that Carlos ran the farthest distance on Wednesday when he ran 20/24 of a mile.
Therefore, the day Carlos ran the farthest distance is Wednesday.
