To find out how far the caterpillar can crawl in 1 minute, you need to determine how many 1/4 minutes are there in 1 minute.
1 minute has 4 quarters (1/4 * 4 = 1).
Since the caterpillar can crawl 1/2 inch in 1/4 of a minute, the distance it can crawl in 1 minute is 1/2 inch * 4 quarters = 2 inches.
Therefore, the caterpillar can crawl 2 inches in 1 minute.
