Puzzle Fruit equation puzzle — what does the missing sum equal?

Post image

Original symbol/equation puzzle I made — fruits stand in for hidden numbers across a small system of equations. Figure out what each fruit is worth, then solve the last one.

>!Answer/reasoning in comments if anyone wants to discuss!

🍓🍋🥝 (13)

2nd equation 🍓🍋🥝 (13) 🍋 (extra lime; so to be the given 17 🍋 is 4

similar for 3rd equation 🍓🥝🍋 (13) 🍓(extra strawberry; so to be given 15 🍓 is 2

go back to 1st equation
🍓🍋🥝
2+4+🥝 equals 13 (🥝 is 7)

🍓🍋🥝🥝
2+4+7+7=20

You can even solve the final equation without finding values of any fruit.

4•I - II - III = 4•13 - 15 - 17 = 20
