100% :.)
To find out how many dozen eggs Sarah bought, we need to divide the total number of eggs she bought by the number of eggs in one dozen, which is 12.
So, we divide 18 by 12:
18 รท 12 = 1.5
Sarah bought 1.5 dozen eggs.
But we need to choose the closest option from the given choices. Let's convert 1.5 into a mixed fraction:
1.5 = 1 + 0.5 = 1 1/2
Therefore, Sarah bought 1 1/2 dozen eggs.
The answer is A. 1 1/2.
