And much of what I stumbled into by following my curiosity and intuition turned out to be
priceless later on. (Separate subject and predicate)
Answers
The sentence we have is:-
And much of what I stumbled into by following my curiosity and intuition turned out to be priceless later on.
After closely reading it, you will see that the sentence is talking about the narrator's "curiosity and intuition". Therefore, the subject is "..my curiosity and intuition.."
Next, look at what the rest of the sentence says about the subject; the narrator's curiosity and intuition made him/her stumble into something unknown and unexpected, but later the narrator discovered its importance. Thus, the predicate in the given sentence is "And much of what I stumbled into by following..turned out to be priceless later on."
Ans) Subject: "..my curiosity and intuition.."
Predicate: "And much of what I stumbled into by following..turned out to be priceless later on."
