The total weight of crates is 65 x 100 = 6500.
It will take two minutes to move 1000 pounds. This can be expressed as a ratio: 2 minutes/1000 lbs. We will multiple the total weight by the ratio to cancel out the units and obtain the answer:
6500 lbs (2 minutes/ 1000) = 13 minutes.
It would take approximately 13 minutes to move the crates.

I misinterpreted the question. I assumed the total amount of time, round trip, would be 2. With the total amount of time taking 4 minutes, this will be substituted in for "2 minutes" and you will get 26.

The answer is not 13 minutes. It will take 2 minutes to travel with the crane from point A to B so to travel back to point A it will take 2 minutes also. The answer is 26 minutes08/08/19
