It gets confusing because of the fruits so we replace fruits with letters as follows;

Apple = A,

Mango = M and

Banana = B

So the equations would look like this.

A = 7

M = 5 + A

A = 1 +3B

A + M + B = ?

So here’s how we solve it

Since A = 7,

M = 5 + A = 5 + 7 = 12

SO M = 12.

Now, A = 1 + 3B

i.e. 7 = 1 + 3B

So 3B = 7 – 1 = 6

Hence, B = 2

So A + M + B = 7 + 12 + 2 = 21

So A + M + B = 21

Apple + Mango + Banana = 21.
