But if it's a bakers dozen?

 

I read the thread  but I just found out I'm brave enough 

 

The answer is not a dozen...

Six of one and half a dozen of the other means you have two portions the same - just referred to by different names.

So it means you either have two equal portions, or the portion you are comparing with someone else's portion is equal - therefore you have one portion equal to someone else's portion

It's an English language idiom.

I've got a crate of 24 cans of Stella and six four packs. Which do you want?

Meh. Six of one and half a dozen of the other. I'll take the slab.

It's a comparative idiom not an additive one

Looking at this thread makes me wanna throw up. Dattebanette which is why I skipped school today. 8(

 

Convert the six to half dozens then add said half dozens and therefore u get one whole dozen which is 12
