Another silly math problem.

[Basil]

Wrong. Look closely at the problem.

 

[mezy]

so why is the last plate different, or is it a stack of plates with one missing making the answer 70

 

[mezy]

just seen something else, answer 50

 

[NutmegCT]

stack of three plates = 15, so each plate is a 5 and three stacks = 45

each banana is a 1, so 8 bananas plus one stack plates = 23

4 bananas plus 3 hours plus 3 hours = 10

2 hours plus 3 bananas = 5

5 times (2 plates = 10) = 50!

Apples to oranges!

Well, the 3 circles seems to be 15 which leads to the 45, so 2 would be 10. Then 2+3x10, my guess 50.

45?

Looks like three of us all get up around 6am EST!
