    Working Backwards
    4. 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 did the farmers gather in all?
