The correct answer is
$\frac{3}{2}$

Bananas Calculation: Total Dozens Eaten

To determine the number of dozens Ram eats, we first sum the total bananas consumed daily.

  • Morning: 7 bananas
  • Afternoon: 8 bananas
  • Evening: 3 bananas

Step 1: Calculate Total Bananas

The total number of bananas eaten is the sum of bananas from each part of the day:

7 + 8 + 3 = 18$

Ram eats 18 bananas in total each day.

Step 2: Convert Total Bananas to Dozens

Since 1 dozen equals 12 bananas, we divide the total number of bananas by 12 to find the quantity in dozens.

Number of Dozens = 1812$

Simplifying this fraction gives:

1812 = 18 ÷ 612 ÷ 6 = 32$

Therefore, Ram eats 32$ dozens of bananas daily.
