Question

What is the ratio between $2$ bakers dozen and a dozen?

• A. 13 : 6
• B. 13 : 8
• C. 14 : 6
• D. 14 : 8

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

We know that,

$1$ bakers dozen $=13$
$\Rightarrow$ $2$ bakers dozen $=13\times 2=26$
Also, $1$ dozen $=12$
Now,
$\frac{\text{2 bakers dozen}}{\text{one dozen}}=\frac{26}{12}=\frac{13}{6}$

The required ratio $=13:6$

hence Option A is correct.
