C Correct answer
Explanation

A dozen always equals 12, regardless of what you're counting. The question tries to distract you with 'two cent stamps' making you think about value instead of quantity. This is a classic riddle testing whether you focus on the wrong detail.

AI explanation

A 'dozen' always refers to a count of 12 items, regardless of what each item costs. So a dozen two-cent stamps is still 12 stamps — the price per stamp is irrelevant to how many make up a dozen. This is a classic riddle designed to make solvers overthink the '2 cent' detail as if it required a calculation.
