Simply work out the brainteaser and COMMENT your answer

Edit: I think it's 106

Please see ikkles post :)

My eyes aren't good tonight so I may have made mistakes counting the eggs in the basket etc :o

Edit

I could only see 6 eggs in the baskets too even when enlarging :o

    Your maths is wrong lovely. 3 bunny’s is 75 so a bunny is 25 not 15

    Bunny + bunny + bunny = 75
    Bunny = 25

    Basket of 7 eggs + basket of 7 eggs + bunny = 39
    Basket of 7 eggs + basket of 7 eggs + 25 = 39
    2 baskets of 7 eggs = 14
    Basket of 7 eggs = 7 (so each egg =1)

    2 eggs with 5 stripes - basket of 7 eggs = 3
    2 eggs with 5 stripes - 7 = 3
    2 eggs with 5 stripes = 10
    Egg with 5 stripes = 5 (so each stripe =1)

    Basket of 6 eggs + bunny x egg with 4 stripes
    So
    6 + 25 x 4
    Bodmas makes it
    6 + (25x4)
    So 106
    You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have.
