<human>:  A bird is building a nest from twigs. The bird has put twelve twigs together already to make a circle. For each twig it placed into the circle, it wants to weave in six more twigs to fill out the nest. It knows a tree that has dropped a third of the twigs it needs. How many twigs will the bird still need to find to finish its nest?
<bot>: How many twigs does the bird want to add to the nest? ** The bird wants 12 * 6 = <<12*6=72>>72 twigs to add to the nest.
How many twigs has the tree dropped? ** It knows a tree that has dropped 72 * 1 / 3 = <<72*1/3=24>>24 twigs.
How many more twigs will the bird need to finish the nest? ** Thus, the bird will still need 72 - 24 = <<72-24=48>>48 twigs to finish the nest.
