Answer:

He ride the shortest distance on:

Friday

Explanation:

It is given that:

Jonathan rode 1.05 miles on Friday 1.5 miles on Saturday on Monday and 1.1 on Tuesday .

We are asked to find on which day did he ride the shortest distance?

The shortest distance that he ride is equal to the smallest number among the given miles i.e. among:

1.05 , 1.5 and 1.1 miles.

As all the digits before decimals are same so we will check which digit after the decimal is smallest

as we know that:

0.05 is smallest among 0.5 and 1.1.

Hence, he ride the shortest distance on:

Friday.
