Question

Phillipa rode her bicycle every day over the weekend. Phillipa rode [( 13.5 + 8.5) divide by 2] miles on Friday, [ 18 - ( 2 x 4 )] miles on Saturday and [ 20 - ( 5 - 3 )] miles on Sunday.

On which day did Phillipa ride her bicycle the most

She rode her bicycle the most on _________

Answer 1

Let's calculate the miles Phillipa rode each day.

**Friday:**
\[
\text{Miles on Friday} = \frac{(13.5 + 8.5)}{2}
\]
\[
= \frac{22}{2}
\]
\[
= 11 \text{ miles}
\]

**Saturday:**
\[
\text{Miles on Saturday} = 18 - (2 \times 4)
\]
\[
= 18 - 8
\]
\[
= 10 \text{ miles}
\]

**Sunday:**
\[
\text{Miles on Sunday} = 20 - (5 - 3)
\]
\[
= 20 - 2
\]
\[
= 18 \text{ miles}
\]

Now we compare the miles ridden each day:
- Friday: 11 miles
- Saturday: 10 miles
- Sunday: 18 miles

The maximum distance is on **Sunday**.

Therefore, Phillipa rode her bicycle the most on **Sunday**.
