Equation 1: there are 6 Shoe in first equation.
6 x Shoe = 30
Shoe = 5
Equation 2: there are 2 Shoe and 2 Men
2 x Man + 2 x Shoe = 20
2 x Man + 2 x 5 = 20
2 x Man = 20 - 10
2 x Man = 10
Man = 5
Equation 3: there are 4 Popcorn and 1 Man
4 x Popcorn + 1 x Man = 13
4 x Popcorn + 1 x 5 = 13
2 x Popcorn = 13 - 5
2 x Popcorn = 8
Popcorn = 2
Many poeple are solving these simple mathematical equations. But there are few points which people are missing. See the points hightlited in the image.

Now if you solve the equation
1 Shoe + (1 Man + 2 Popcorn + 2 Shoe) x Popcorn
5 + (5 + (2 x 2) + (2 x 5)) x 2
5 + (5 + 4 + 10) x 2
5 + 38
