Brain Teasers : Apples, Bananas and Coconuts Puzzle

Question :

applebananacoconut

Can anyone Solve this ??

Answer :

See that each bunch of bananas has four bananas except the one in the final line, which has 3 bananas. Also look at the third line it has one coconut, while the last line has only 1/2 of a coconut. 

So,apple =10,Banana=1,Coconut=2

3 apples = 30, so 1 apple = 10.

10 + 8 bananas = 18, so 8 bananas = 8 and 1 banana = 1

4 – 1 coconut = 2, so 1 coconut = 2

Therefore, 1/2 coconut + 1 apple + 3 bananas = 1 + 10 + 3 = 14
