There are 42 eggs in three and a half dozen. To calculate this, you first determine how many eggs are in one dozen, which is 12. Then you multiply 12 by 3 to get the total number of eggs in three dozen, which is 36. Finally, you add half of a dozen, which is 6, to get a total of 42 eggs in three and a half dozen.
dozen = 12 half doz. = 6 12 x 3 + 6 = 42
