Which of the following sentences is correct?

A) does anyone know why Steve ordered five dozen eggs?

B) seven thousands of people showed up for the concert.

C) she filled her living room with dozens of tulips.

D) he needed hundred of quilt squares for his project.

Respuesta :

c- She filled her living room with dozens of tulips.
I would say the correct answer is C. She filled her living room with dozens of tulips.
A is incorrect because there should be a hyphen between five and dozen: five-dozen eggs because it is a compound adjective. B is incorrect because the word thousands should be singular: seven thousand people/thousands of people (without seven). D is incorrect because the word hundred should be plural: hundreds of quilt.
This leaves us with C as the correct answer.
