Three of the four equations have given results. Are you able to solve the fourth equation by yourself without peeking below?
Let's talk about the solution - this is how you can calculate it:

• We have an addition of three lipsticks which is equal to 30 in the first equation.
• Then in the second equation, we have two mirrors and one lipstick, which adds up to twenty.
• The third equation consists of an addition of a mirror and two double nailpolishes.
• Lastly, the fourth equation, which you have to solve, comprises of a mirror plus one nailpolish plus a lipstick. 

What is your answer?

For the solution, you need to find out the numbers each animal represents:

• To determine what the lipsticks equal, you simply need to divide 30 by three (as there are three equal parts). So, lipstick = 10.
• 10 + mirror + mirror = 20. So the mirror equals  5.
• 5 + two nail polishes + two nail polishes = 9. So two nailpolishes equal 2.
• That means, one nail polish equals 1.
• So the last equation is 5 + 1 x 10 = ? 

Therefore, the final equation can be translated into 5 + 1 x 10 = 15. Hence, the solution is 15.
