14 bananas =]
wow that was a toughie
ok so 5 fish is 2 loaves of bread.
4 loaves of bread are worth 14 oranges
so 2 loaves of bread would equal 7 oranges
since one loaf of bread is 1 banana and 3 oranges, 2 loaves of bread is 2 bananas and 6 oranges.
so 2 bananas and 6 oranges is the same as 7 oranges
so 1 orange is 2 bananas
and since 5 fish = 2 loaves of bread = 7 oranges
7 x 2 = 14 bananas
you have to much time on your hands buddy... lol

two bananas and six oranges
he can get 2 bananas. trade the 5 fish for 2 loaves of bread. trade the 2 loaves of bread for 2 bananas and 6 oranges. k, so he'll have 6 extra oranges. yay! orange juice!
He asks a guy, how many loaves of bread you want for say, 5 bananas? And he gets the bananas.
I can see how it would work, and I know how to figure out.
*But I'm to lazy.*
Trade the five fish for 2 loaves... Trade the loaves for 2 bananas and 6 oranges. - 2 bananas...
two bananas, but he can also get four oranges out of it.
i think?
By bartering 5 fish for 2 loaves of bread. Bartering 2 loaves of bread for 2 bananas and 6 oranges. Bartering 6 oranges for 2 melons.
Final answer = 2 bananas
I don't think your numbers add up, but if five fish are worth two leaves of bread, and one loaf of bread is worth one banana, then Byron can only get two bananas.
two bananas and 2 melons? my dad's name is byron.
he trades 5 fish for 2 breads, trades 2 breads for 2 bananas and 6 oranges...so doesnt he only get 2 bananas?? thats so confusing lol
2 bananas, 2 melons.
2 loaves of bread, the 16 oranges and 4 loaves of bread are all unneeded information (for those who are ready this before answering, in other words cheating.) oh and some melons lol.
He can trade his bread for two bananas and six oranges, according to the third statement.
He can trade the oranges for melons, which are virtually useless to him.
He can attempt to trade his oranges for just under two loaves of bread, trading those for just under two bananas and just under three oranges, and try to trade the pieces of oranges for more pieces of bread, but I don't know if that's allowed...
2bananas........5 fish goes to 2 loaves.....both loaves give a total of 2bananas and 6 oranges.
All byron is going to get with that information is one hell of an head ache!
hey! was up
