there is a snail in a 12 foot deep hole. Each day the bug travels 3 towards the top, but at night, it slides down 2 feet. How many days does it take at the stated rate for the bug to make it out of the hole?

by the way, u might wanna check out my friend's website, www.keepmestupid.com. Its packed full of games, and it's made by kingwilliam (thats his name in this site)
