A stegosaurus eats ten twelfths of a plant and then eats two twelfths of the plant later. Estimate how much of the plant the dinosaur ate in all. Explain your thinking.
The answer is 0/12. We know this because if there are twelve twelfths [12/12] of a plant and the stegosaurus eats ten twelfths [10/12] of a plant then it is 12 - 10 or the fraction form [12/12 - 10/12] then we subtract and we get the answer [2/12]. And then later it says the stegosaurus ate two twelfths [2/12] of a plant then we subtract 2 - 12 or [2/12 - 2/12] that would then equal 0/12.
