She walked the most on Friday because you have to find the LCD. The LCD is 24.
For example, to change the denominator of 4 to 24, you must divide 24 divided by 4 which equals 6. Since your answer was 6, you have to multiply both numbers, which are 3 and 4, by 6.
So, 4 times 6 is 24. This is the denominator and 4 times 3 is 18. This is the numerator.
If you do the same with all of the fractions then you will have the fractions of, 18 over 24, 12 over 24, and 9 over 24.
Look at all the numerators (the number on top of the fraction) and decide which one is the biggest.
18 is the biggest and since the fraction 18 over 24 was originally 3 over 4, this means that she walked the most on Friday.
Hoped this helps!!

Let the number of large bookcases be x and number of small bookcases be y, then
Maximise P = 80x + 50y;
subkect to:
6x + 2y ≤ 24
x, y ≥ 2

The corner points are (2, 2), (2, 6), (3.333, 2)
For (2, 2): P = 80(2) + 50(2) = 160 + 100 = 260
For (2, 6): P = 80(2) + 50(6) = 160 + 300 = 460
For (3.333, 2): P = 80(3.333) + 50(2) = 266.67 + 100 = 366.67

Therefore, for maximum profit, he should produce 2 large bookcases and 6 small bookcases.

Answer: Approximately d = 208.72

============================================================

Work Shown:

Make sure your calculator is in radian mode

A quick way to check is to compute cos(pi) and you should get -1

cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse

cos(x) = 200/d

cos(0.29) = 200/d

d*cos(0.29) = 200

d = 200/cos(0.29)

d = 208.715135166392 which is approximate

d = 208.72

I rounded to two decimal places since x is rounded in that manner as well. Round however else you need if your teacher instructs.
