3 * apple = 30

apple  = 10

10 + banana + banana = 18

2 * banana = 8

banana = 4

4 - coconut = 2

coconut = 2

2 + 10 + 4 = 16

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) If three apples equals 30, then each apple is worth 10.

[tex]apple=10[/tex]

2.) Subtract 10 from 18 to leave the value of two bananas.

[tex]18-10=8[/tex]

Divide by two to find the value of one banana

[tex]8[/tex]÷[tex]2=4[/tex]

[tex]apple=10\\banana=4[/tex]

3.)  Subtract the value of the banana from 2 to find the value of the coconut

[tex]4-2=2[/tex]

[tex]apple=10\\banana=4\\coconut=2[/tex]

4.) Add each value

[tex]coconut+apple+banana\\2+4+10=16[/tex]
