A farmers dozen is twelve, like the normal person's. But, a baker's dozen is thirteen. A baker's dozen is one more then the normal dozen, and this is because in Europe during the 13th century baker's had severe punishment when they "cheated" someone out of bread. In order to be sure that they always gave their customers the proper number of bread slices, or loaves. This way if one slice or loaf got burned, eaten, lost, etc their would still be twelve.

A gross a score plus a bakers dozen comes to what total?
Never heard of "bakers score" and "bakers gross", a bakers dozen is 13 because bakers used to throw in an extra bun for example if you ordered 12 buns, a baker would throw in one more making it thirteen, a score is 20 and a gross is 144, so if you go with the "bakers dozen" rule I suppose you add one to a score and one to a gross.
