A brain teaser with pictures of fruit confuses the Internet

(twitter.com/BuzzFeed)

A picture brain teaser being called "fruit algebra" is being shared heavily on Facebook.

BuzzFeed reported Wednesday that the original creator is unknown, but it has been shared hundreds of thousands of times since late last year.

The image features fruit as terms in a math equation.

In the first row, three apples are added, giving the sum of 30.

In the second row, one apple and two banana bunches with four bananas in each add to a sum of 18.

In the third row, two coconut halves are subtracted from one banana bunch with four bananas, making a difference of 2.

The fourth row has one coconut half added to one apple plus a banana bunch with three bananas in it.

The question is, what is the result of the fourth equation?

Some comments in a popular Facebook post of the image have answers that include 16, 15 and 14.

Take a look at the image for yourself below. Do you know the answer?
