Answers: A snail is at the bottom of a well. The well is thirty metres deep.

The snail advances three metres in one day.
During the night, the snail slides back two metres.

On the 27th day the snail has moved 27meter but on the 28th day the snail advances the last 3meters and is out (27+3=30). The answer is 28days that is if the snail is at the walls when time is measure.

Or as my old math teacher said "snails don't swim and drowns".

6 days

30 days. becos it only moves 1m a day.

30 days because 30 -3+2=1 30 divided by 1= 30

30 days , yup

by the end of each night it moves only one metre.
therefore it takes 30 days o reach the top of the well

I heard this before in my math class and i forgot i think it wasn't 30 days though i am not sure...............this was a math question...........

Dunno

28 days
