Cristine bought a dozen lemons and gave 1/4 of them to her neighbor. How many lemons does Cristine have left?
How many lemons did Cristine buy? ** Cristine bought 1 x 12 = <<1*12=12>>12 lemons.
How many lemons did Cristine give to her neighbor? ** She gave 12 x 1/4 = <<12*1/4=3>>3 lemons to her neighbor.
How many lemons does Cristine have left? ** So, Cristine is left with 12 - 3 = <<12-3=9>>9 lemons.
