Best Answer

There were already thirteen dwarves and the only reason they needed another to accompany them was due to thirteen being an unfortunate number. Bilbo was made the fourteenth mainly because of the unlucky number 13.

Gandalf chose Bilbo to be the fourteenth member of the company. Gandalf selected Bilbo because:

  1. Gandalf had always been interested in hobbits, so when looking for the fourteenth member of the company, his thoughts returned to hobbits.
  2. Hobbits can remain unseen if they wish and are very quiet (except at parties...)
  3. Gandalf remembered that Bilbo as a child had always been inquisitive and eager for news of the outside world.
