A caterpillar can crawl 1/2 of an inch in 1/4 of a minute. How far can he crawl in 1 minute?(1 point)
Responses 1 inch 1 inch 1/8 inch 1 eighth inch 2 inches 2 inches 1/2 inches
To find out how far the caterpillar can crawl in 1 minute, we need to multiply the distance it can crawl in 1/4 of a minute by 4.
Distance in 1/4 of a minute: 1/2 inch
Distance in 1 minute: (1/2 inch) * 4 = 2 inches
Therefore, the caterpillar can crawl 2 inches in 1 minute.
