To find out how far the caterpillar can crawl in 1 minute, we can multiply the distance it crawls 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. So the answer is C. 2 inches.

Answer 3

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To find out how far the caterpillar can crawl in 1 minute, we need to determine how many 1/4 minute intervals are in 1 minute. Since there are 4 quarters in one whole minute, we can calculate the distance the caterpillar crawls in 1/4 of a minute and then multiply it by 4.

Given that the caterpillar crawls 1/2 inch in 1/4 of a minute, we can multiply this distance by 4 to account for the 4 quarters in a minute:

(1/2 inch) x 4 = 2 inches

So, the caterpillar can crawl 2 inches in 1 minute. This means the correct answer is C. 2 inches.
