Answer 1

20 seconds!

Explanation:

A foot is equal to 12 inches meaning you take 12 and divide it by 24 to get 2 meaning its 2 feet. and if it took 10 seconds for one foot, then it will take 20 seconds for 2 feet

Answer 2

20 seconds

Explanation:

1ft in 10 seconds = 12 in / 10 sec

to get 24 inches, or 2 feet, we simply multiply that by 2:

(12 in /10 sec) * 2

24 in /20 sec
