it will take 2 minutes because if a snail pace is 60 inches per minute means if you multiply 60 times 2 it will be 120 or you can add another 60 and it will give you 120 -

Ok, so here, we have the unit rate of the snail. Now, we need to set up a proportion.
60/1 = 120/x
Now, cross multiply.
60*x = 120*1
60x= 120
Now divide to solve for x.
60x/60 = 120/60
x = 120/60
x= 2
Now our final answer is 2.
Final answer:- The snail will take 2 minutes to crawl 120 feet
