2.) Three farmers – Akai, Clint and Claude, spend a day gathering coconuts together. When they
have finished, they are very tired and fell asleep. The following morning Akai wakes up. Not
wishing to disturb his friends, he decides to divide the coconuts into three. There is one left
over, so he throws this odd one away, helps himself to his share, and goes home. A few minutes
later, Clint awakes. Not realizing that the first has already gone, he too divides the coconuts
into three. He finds one left over, throws the odd one away, helps himself to his fair share, and
goes home. In the morning, Claude wakes to find that he is alone. He spots the two discarded
coconuts, and puts them with the pile, giving him a total of 20 coconuts. How many coconuts
