To compare the amount of time Cindy read on each day, we can convert the fractions to have a common denominator.

3/6 = 1/2
3/4 = 3/4
2/8 = 1/4

Now we can see that Cindy read for 1/2 hour on Friday, 3/4 hour on Saturday, and 1/4 hour on Sunday.

Comparing these amounts, we can see that Cindy read the least amount of time on Sunday when she read for 1/4 hour. Therefore, on Sunday, Cindy read the least amount of time.
