Let's solve this
Emoji Math Puzzle step by step.
We are given four equations with emojis representing numbers. Our goal is to find the value of the missing number in the last equation.

Step 1: Assign variables to each emoji
Let’s define:
- 🌭 = Hot dog
- 🍰 = Cake slice
- 🍟 = Fries
---
Equation 1:
> 🌭 + 🌭 + 🌭 = 12
This means:
3 × 🌭 = 12
So, 🌭 = 12 ÷ 3 =
4
✔ So,
Hot dog (🌭) = 4
---
Equation 2:
> 🍰 + 🍰 × 🌭 = 50
We already know 🌭 = 4. Plug that in:
🍰 + 🍰 × 4 = 50
Remember
order of operations (PEMDAS): multiplication before addition.
So:
🍰 + (🍰 × 4) = 50
=> 🍰(1 + 4) = 50
=> 5 × 🍰 = 50
=> 🍰 = 50 ÷ 5 =
10
✔ So,
Cake slice (🍰) = 10
---
Equation 3:
> 🍟 × 🍟 + 🍰 = 35
We know 🍰 = 10, so:
🍟 × 🍟 + 10 = 35
=> 🍟² + 10 = 35
=> 🍟² = 25
=> 🍟 = √25 =
5
✔ So,
Fries (🍟) = 5
---
Equation 4 (the one we need to solve):
> 🍰 + 🍟 × 🌭 = ?
Now plug in the values:
🍰 = 10
🍟 = 5
🌭 = 4
So:
10 + 5 × 4 = ?
Again,
order of operations: multiplication first.
5 × 4 = 20
Then: 10 + 20 =
30
---
✔ Final Answer: 30
---
Summary of Values:
- 🌭 (Hot dog) = 4
- 🍰 (Cake) = 10
- 🍟 (Fries) = 5
Final expression:
🍰 + 🍟 × 🌭 = 10 + 5 × 4 = 10 + 20 =
30
---
Answer: 30 ✔
