Answer:

A. 0.068

Explanation:

First, 3 inches to miles. 3 inches in a mile is 0.00004735.

The snail moves 0.00004735 miles per minute.

Next, search how many minutes are there in a day. There is 1440 minutes in a day.

Multiply the 1440 and 0.00004735.

1440*0.00004735=0.068

The snail can move 0.068 miles per day if it doesn't take a break.

Hope this helps!

If not, I am sorry.
