Can you solve this tricky fruit math puzzle? 

At first glance this looks like a simple math question for children. However the way it is designed makes it surprisingly difficult and many people end up with the wrong answer.

In the puzzle each type of fruit has a different value. Your challenge is to figure out the value of each fruit and then calculate the final equation.

The last line asks you to add one cherry one apple and three bananas. To solve it correctly you need to carefully work out the value of each fruit from the previous equations. For example the first equation shows three apples adding up to 30, so each apple is worth 10.

The other equations reveal that each banana is worth 4 and each cherry is worth 1.

Using these values:

Apple = 10

Banana = 4

Cherry = 1

Final calculation: 10 + (3 × 4) + 1 = 23

Correct Answer: 23

Note

If the original puzzle counts each banana as 1 because it changes from a bunch to a single banana or uses a different image in the last row the answer may change.

The answer depends on the exact picture shown. The text you provided says 14 but based only on the values stated in the text (apple = 10, banana = 4, cherry = 1) the total is 23.
