#13# inches in #20# seconds is equivalent to #39# inches/minute.

Since there are #3# period of #20# seconds in a minute or #(13" inches")/(cancel(20)cancel(" seconds")) xx (cancel(60)^3cancel(" seconds"))/(1" minute") = (39" inches")/("minute")#

To find the unit rate for a snail that can go 13 inches in 20 seconds, divide the total distance by the total time:

[ \text{Unit rate} = \frac{13 \text{ inches}}{20 \text{ seconds}} = 0.65 \text{ inches/second} ]
