    4 dozens

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Find Eleanor and Joanna's ratio of eggs to milk

    Eleanor:

    Dozen eggs : gallons of milk

    9 : 3

    3 : 1

    Joanna:

    Dozen eggs : gallons of milk

    2 : 2

    1 : 1

    They gather one gallon of milk each which means Joanna has 1 dozen eggs and Eleanor has 3 dozens of eggs.

    Total dozen of eggs = 3 + 1 = 4

    Therefore, total dozen of eggs the family have per week is 4 dozens.
