Every weekend a new logic riddle is published here (please forgive me, if real life now and then forces me to delay the publishing) and old riddles are moved to the archive. Every riddle has been constructed and tested by me, but still I won't guarantee that they "work". Never mind, go ahead and try!
Jill, Joe and Jack went to buy some fruit. Jill bought 4 apples. Jack bought twice as many melons as he bought apples. Joe bought 21 fruits, none of these were melons or pears. Jill & Joe bought the same number of bananas, Jack didnt buy any. Jill bought 20 plums. The three persons bought 20 bananas and 9 apples in all. Jack bought 16 pieces of fruit, 10 of these were pears. Jill bought 34 pieces of fruit. They bought 4 melons in all.
How many plums did Joe buy?
