Trading fish for bread 2005-02-25
From Mike:
Byron lives where people trade goods they produce for other things they need. He has some fish and wants to trade them for bananas. He finds the following:
5 fish = 2 loaves of bread
6 oranges = 2 melons
1 loaf of bread = 1 banana and 3 oranges
4 loaves of bread = 14 oranges
How many bananas can Byron get with 5 fish?
