Answer:

Carlos rode further on Sunday by 1 and StartFraction 51 over 56 EndFraction miles

Explanation:

Carlos biked StartFraction 139 over 8 EndFraction miles on Saturday

= 139/8 miles

And on Sunday = StartFraction 135 over 7 EndFraction miles on Sunday.

= 135/7 miles

On which day did he ride further and by how much?

To calculate this, we have to find the difference between the number rode miles he rode on Saturday and Sunday

= Number miles(Sunday) - Number rod miles for Saturday

= 135/7 - 139/8

= LCD, Lowest Common Denominator

= 56

= 8(135) - 7(139)/56

= 107/56

= 1 51/56

Carlos rode further on Sunday by 1 and StartFraction 51 over 56 EndFraction miles
