Mason walked on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. The distances were 6/8 mile 1/4 mile and 1/6 mile. He did not walk the farthest on Monday. He walked less on Friday than Monday. Use the clues to find out How far did he walk each day?

This is moreso a logic question than mathematics.

We know that Monday is not the furthest distance, but Friday is less than Monday. As there are only three values, Monday cannot be the furthest nor the shortest.

Wednesday 6/8 mile (3/4 mile)
Monday 1/4 mile
Friday 1/6 mile
