Answer:

No, Mai's reasoning is incorrect

Step-by-step explanation:

They are actually going the same speed because their centimeter per second ratio is the same. this can be found by dividing them both down, divide the slug by three and the snail by 6 and they both end up the same centimeter/second ratio. (1:1)

Sorry idk how to explain it good but do you get it?
