Look at the question first! 

Let's take a look at the puzzle again.




First thing, we should observe in such puzzles that how objects in the question equation differs from those in given equations.

Here, pair of the sneakers appears as it is in the question while pair of whistles reduced to 1 whistle in question.

And if we look closely the cat, the whistle around the neck is missing in the question.

Now from equation (1), pair of sneakers = 10.

From equation (2), Cat = 5. 

From equation (3), 2 whistles = 4; hence 1 whistle = 2.

Here, we can deduce that cat without whistle in question is CAT - WHISTLE = 5 - 2 = 3.

So the equation in question comes out as, 10 + 3 X 2  = 10 + 6 = 16.
