Let's solve this step by step using the given equations with fruits. We'll assign variables to each fruit and solve for their values.

Step 1: Assign variables


Let:
- Red apple = A
- Yellow lemon = L
- Green apple = G
- Watermelon slice = W
- Orange = O

Now, write down the equations based on the image:

1. A + L = 6
2. G + G = 62G = 6
3. L + 2 = W
4. G + A = 4
5. L + O = W
6. L + W + O = ? ← This is what we need to find.

Step 2: Solve the equations



From equation (2):
2G = 6G = 3

From equation (4):
G + A = 43 + A = 4A = 1

From equation (1):
A + L = 61 + L = 6L = 5

From equation (3):
L + 2 = W5 + 2 = WW = 7

From equation (5):
L + O = W5 + O = 7O = 2

Now, plug into equation (6):
L + W + O = ?
5 + 7 + 2 = 14

---

Final Answer: 14



So, the missing value is 14.
