If one apple is equal to 15 oranges, and 3 cherries are equal to 15 oranges...?

You have 46 watermelons.

The fruits correspond to the starting letter's position in the alphabet. Of course, you state that 1 apple (A=1) equals 15 oranges (O=15)...3 cherries (C=3) also equals 15 oranges...

1A=15O and 3C=15O...thus 1A=3C or 1C=1/3A

Now, watermelon...(W=23) - since 3C=1A....6C=2A...so 2A=2W...which would equal 46.

It's not really a mathematical equation, it's just something he divised to screw with your minds. Basically, he was just looking for the value of W (in accordance to the letter's numerical position). The math part is really only to screw you up - just multiply the final answer by 2.

2--because your ratio is three cherries to 15 oranges and one apple eguals 15 oranges. The ratio is 1 is to 15 as 3 is to fifteen. So 6 cherries equals 2 ratio proportions. Sorry, I can't explain it any better than that. Step logic is not my strong suit. I just know that it makes sense.

You don't have any watermelons, you only have 6 cherries. BUT you can buy some watermelon at the store.

Your question can't be answered. You never gave the value of a watermelon. Try again.

This is not an answerable question, because you have no idea what watermelons are equal to. No answer. None.

The same amount of watermelons that would equal 75 rutabegas.

2 watermelons. If my answer is not correct, then U need to go back to school.

Possession of cherries neither mandates nor procludes possession of watermelons.

2 apples worth

I think Candy177 is right.

You have 46 watermelons.
