If I try to look at it objectively from an algebraic perspective I would say that:
There are 6 unknowns or symbols and they are :
a bunch of 4 bananas
a bunch of 3 bananas
2 pieces of coconut
1 piece of coconut
an apple
2 question marks
So with 6 unknowns and only 4 equations this is not solvable due not enough information
So I simply do not know and I am alright with that, I release it. I am OK with this uncertainty.
Now what was it we were talking about? :-)

Oops. Should have been 14 not 13. 1 + 10 + 3 = 14

1 coconut plus 10 (one Apple) plus 3 (3 bananas) equals 13
