    1/6

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The centipede that Maria measured was 1 1/12 inches long. If you convert this to an improper fraction it is equal to 13/12 inches. Now to find how much longer Maria's centipede was than Jeromes, you just take 11/12 and minus it from 13/12 which is equal to 2/12 of an inch, which then simplifies to 1/6 of an inch.
