The math isn't difficult. You just have to observe and think.

OK, I changed my mind. Here is what I come up with:

2 shoes = 10 therefore 1 shoe =5
Boy = 5
2 bouquets = 4 therefore 1 bouquet = 2

Final formula is:

1 shoe + (boy holding 2 bouquets and wearing 2 shoes) X 1 bouquet which would numerically be 5 + (5+4+10) X 2 or 5+19X2. Using the MDAS method of solving that would then be 5+38=43 (final answer).

Depends if you do the multiplication first or last. First I get 43, last I get 48,
