A 5hi/m
B 60hi/m
C hi/12m
D 5m/hi
E 5him


We are given that a snail's rate is i/m inches/minute. Since 1 foot = 12 inches, in feet per minute, the snail’s rate is:

i/m x 1/12 = i/12

We need to determine how far it will move in h hours or 60h minutes.

Since distance = rate x time:

distance = i/12m x 60h = 5hi/m

Answer: A
