Answer:

11(3)/(5)$ miles

Explanation:

Miguel ran
2(9)/(10) miles on Monday.

On Friday, he ran 5 times as far as he did on Monday.

Miles run on Friday

=5 X 2(9)/(10)

$=5 X (29)/(10)\\=(29)/(2)$ miles$

Difference in Number of Miles Run

$=(29)/(2)-(29)/(10)\\=(145-29)/(10)\\=(116)/(10)\\=11(3)/(5)$ miles$

Therefore, Miguel ran
11(3)/(5)$ miles farther on Friday.
