It all comes down to how one interprets the swordman icons in the last line. Let's call the swordman X and we know X=5. So we have XX in the line. Algebraically that would mean X times X, not 2 times X(or X+X), or X used as a digit in a number twice(55). As a result the correct answer would be 24, not 9(from the 2*X), or 54(from using X as a digit).

Assuming that the 2 next to each other mean 2x then the answer is......

While you are correct in the potential ways to interpret the last line, the most likely is 2 of x. Why? All other functions are stated. If it was X times X it would be listed as X*X. They are showing a group of 2 X's, therefore 2X...…..bernhardt (US1) said:It all comes down to how one interprets the swordman icons in the last line. Let's call the swordman X and we know X=5.

That is the answer.
Prob 1: x+x+x==15 3x==15 15/3==5 x==5 |
Prob 2: y+x+z==12 y+5+z==12 y+z==7 y==7-z | y+5+3==12 y=4
Prob 3: y+z+z==10 7-z+2z==10 7+z==10 z==3 |
Prob 4:2x+z-y==? 10+3-4===9
That is the answer.
