I count fruits, not bunches, and make no adjustment for different size bananas. However, some people are ignoring that there are 3 bananas in the last line and not 4 as in the previous line. That seems to me to be an argument for counting individual fruits.
30 A = 10 so A=10
A + 4B + 4B = 18 so B = 1
4B - C = 2 so C = 2
Then
C/2 + A + 3B = 1 + 10 + 3 = 14
I say 14.
I'm stealing this one, too.
If you buy them on St. John, they just might be 42. And the quality will be very poor.
I recommend the smaller coconut file a lawsuit in ejectment against the larger coconut.
The givens are wrong. the answer is.....
a half-coconut, one apple, and three bananas. 😉
Now...as Yswami might ask, "How about a nice hawaiian punch"?

That canÛªt happen Dave, (well possibly in CA it could) because the whole coconut was obviously eviscerated prior to the illustration thus rendering it incapable of rational thought. B-)
3A=30 ; A=10
1A +2B=18; 10+2B=18 ; B=4
B-2C=2; 4-2C=2; C=1
1C+1A+1B; 1+10+4=15
So you believe a bunch of 4 bananas is equivalent to a bunch of 3 bananas?
