Two and a half dozen is equal to 30. Each dozen is 12, and a half a dozen is 6, so the equation you can use to figure that out is 12 x 2 + 6 = 30.
Two and a half dozen is equal to 2 x 12 + 6 = 30 eggs. This calculation involves multiplying the number of dozens (2) by 12 (the number of eggs in a dozen) and then adding the remaining half dozen (6 eggs) to get the total count of 30 eggs.
Basically, when someone says "Six of one, half dozen of another" they are saying that the two things they are comparing are the the same thing. They use this because: 1 Dozen = 12 1/2 dozen = 6 6 = 6 So, 1 half dozen and 6 are the same thing.
One dozen = 12 so half a dozen = 12/2 = 6. So simple!
One dozen of roses for $52 is better value than half a dozen roses for $30.
1/4. The ratio is 2: 1/2
30 eggs are in two and a half dozens.
One dozen is 12 Half a dozen is 6
A baker's half dozen is a group of seven items, the concept being that it is one more than a half dozen.
Basically, when someone says "Six of one, half dozen of another" they are saying that the two things they are comparing are the the same thing. They use this because: 1 Dozen = 12 1/2 dozen = 6 6 = 6 So, 1 half dozen and 6 are the same thing.
One dozen = 12 so half a dozen = 12/2 = 6. So simple!
"Half a dozen = 6. So "six" and "half a dozen" are two ways of saying the same thing. The expression means that there is no important difference between the alternatives, or the differences offset one another so the net result is the same. For example, I say to my husband, "Should I take Highway 101 or Highway 280?" and he replies, "It's six of one and a half dozen of the other." He means that I'll get there in about the same amount of time whether I take one road or the other." The phrase, "Six to one, half a dozen to the other." is a UK variation of the phrase. This person's answer says much but conveys little. "Six of one, half a dozen of the other" is a reply to a question that solicits an evaluation between two choices. The person giving the reply is effectively saying "there is no difference between these two choices".
That's soo easy! Okay every one know a dozen is six right? So if there are two one half dozens of cupcakes you made...six! :D Yay! Now you know!! XD ****************************************************************** Actually, one dozen is 12, so you made 12 cupcakes.

One dozen equals 12 (items). 6 is one half (1/2) of a dozen. So 6 stars would be one-half dozen if you need how many dozens.
1 dozen = 12 so 2.5 dozen = 2.5*12 = 30. Simple!
