QUE SIGNIFIE DOZEN EN ANGLAIS

Douzaine

Dozen

Une douzaine est un groupe de douze. La douzaine peut être l'un des premiers groupes primitifs, peut-être parce qu'il y a environ une douzaine de cycles de la lune ou des mois dans un cycle du soleil ou de l'année. Douze est pratique car il a plus de diviseurs que d'autres petits nombres: 12 = 2 × 6 = 3 × 4 = 1 × 12. L'utilisation de douze comme nombre de base, connu sous le nom de système duodecimal, est probablement originaire de la Mésopotamie. Cela pourrait provenir de compter les doigts en comptant chaque doigt avec son pouce. En utilisant cette méthode, une main peut compter jusqu'à douze, et deux mains peuvent compter jusqu'à 144. Douze douzaines sont connues comme grossières; Et douze brut sont appelés un grand brut, un terme le plus souvent utilisé lors de l'expédition ou de l'achat d'articles en vrac. Une centaine, aussi connue sous le nom de petit grossier, compte 120 ou dix douzaines. Une douzaine de boulanger, également connue sous le nom de grande ou douzaine, a 13 ans.

A dozen is a grouping of twelve. The dozen may be one of the earliest primitive groupings, perhaps because there are approximately a dozen cycles of the moon or months in a cycle of the sun or year. Twelve is convenient because it has more divisors than other small numbers: 12 = 2 × 6 = 3 × 4 = 1 × 12. The use of twelve as a base number, known as the duodecimal system, probably originated in Mesopotamia. This could come from counting on one's fingers by counting each finger bone with one's thumb. Using this method, one hand can count to twelve, and two hands can count to 144. Twelve dozen are known as a gross; and twelve gross are called a great gross, a term most often used when shipping or buying items in bulk. A great hundred, also known as a small gross, is 120 or ten dozen. A baker's dozen, also known as big, or long dozen, is 13.
