Three and half dozen.

The word 'dozen' comes from the medieaval Norman French , 'douze', which means 'twelve'.

So divdie 42 by 12 . The answer is '3' with a remainder of '6' , half of '12' . So it is described as 'three and half dozen'.

Oh, dude, you're really testing my math skills here. So, if you divide 42 eggs by 12 (because a dozen is 12), you get 3.5 dozen eggs. But, like, you can't have half an egg, so you'd probably just have 3 dozen eggs and 6 eggs leftover. Math, man.
