Hi there puzzlers - have a go at this one - suggest an answer but DON'T give your method (I want to keep people guessing for a bit) - I'll post the solution in a few days time!
Enjoy

I change my number to 35. Didn’t notice that drafted table had one missing leg.

I’ll change my answer again. I didn’t know there was a pecking order to the processes.
Now I’m at 19.

15. table = 4, rolls of paper = 6; rolls + table + 5 + 15
look again this table only has 3 legs, there are less rolls, the second operator is not an addition.

I am going with 24. 5x4=20 +4 =24. In a mathematical equation, multiplication is performed before addition.
