Don't think we have enough information.. One or some of the apples might have a bite taken from the side we can't see.

 

[Galileo]

Whoever the schmuck was that photoshopped out the 4th banana did a crappy job.  You can still see the tip of the 4th banana at the right end.  So, I say it is still there.  16. /thread

 

[Mr. Ected]

Spoiler

16
Apple = 10
Banana = 4
Coconut = 2

Stupidest ####### trick question I've seen, probably ever

Yes, I missed looking at the last banana gif closely.  you win, I am not smart.  thanks

 

[ClownCausedChaos2]

16, you dip####s.

Oh.  I guess I'm the dip#### now.

 

[shadyridr]

Only three bananas in the last row dip####s

This is why we do math with numbers and not fruit

 

[Mr. Ected]

Take out the fruit and you have...

X + X + X = 30
X + Y + Y = 18
X - Z = 2
X + Y + Z = ???

Take out the fruit and you have...

X + X + X = 30
X + Y + Y = 18
X - Z = 2
X + Y + Z(- one stupid ####### banana)  = ???
 

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Take out the fruit and you have...

X + X + X = 30
X + Y + Y = 18
X - Z = 2
X + Y + Z = ???
 

You cannot plug in "Y" for the last equation. You might want to buy an "A".

 

[Ministry of Pain]

This is a bad question because it is based on a trick. Most are going to assume 16 but oh those sneaky devils altered the bananas ever so slightly.

Take out the fruit and you have...

X + X + X = 30
X + Y + Y = 18
X - Z = 2
X + Y + Z = ???
 

3rd line should be:  Y - Z = 2

Take out the fruit and you have...

X + X + X = 30
X + 4Y + 4Y = 18
X - Z = 2
X + 3 Y + Z = ???
 

Fixed.

Take out the fruit and you have...

X + X + X = 30
X + 4Y + 4Y = 18
X - Z = 2
X + 3Y + Z = ???
 

Fixed. 

No, it isn't.  If you are going to do that, then line 3 should read 4Y - Z = 2.   

 

[Ilov80s]

No, it isn't.  If you are going to do that, then line 3 should read 4Y - Z = 2.   

Good catch, I didn't even see that he ha the wrong variable there. I was just looking for Ys.
