You can use relative dating which is looking at the rocks around it, or you can use radiometric dating, which compares the amount of radioactive element with the amount of nonradioactive element in the rock.
Because if you know how old the fossil is, and you find the fossil inside a rock, you know that rock has a maxium age corresponding with the age of the fossil.
A fossil would most likely be found in sedimentary rocks
The relative age of a fossil that can be determined by comparing it to an index fossil is called biostratigraphic dating. This method relies on the known age range of the index fossil to estimate the relative age of the fossil being studied.
Yes, you can find fossils in sedimentary rocks.
Find out what era the Fossil was from and then you can put a relative date on the sedimentary rock, assuming that the fossil was preserved in the sedimentary rock when it had died. It would not be the actual age because you need to date the radioactive isotopes for that.

underground
I would think a Fox Fossil
By using radiometric or radiocarbon dating.
A fossil would most likely be found in sedimentary rocks
in your bed
No you can't. You can only get it in Soul Silver. Instead you find a Claw fossil in the place where you would find the root fossil- Cliff Cave. You cannot find a Claw fossil in Soul Silver.
Itis more likely to be an older fossil because other fossils have been piled on top of it.
yes because their are lots of them so you would find some
It is the method of descovering the methodof the age of something... I think it is the age of the fossil u are trying to find out
