Answer:

30 fruits

Explanation:

We are given that the number of apples and plums are 10 partners

Since they are ten partners i.e. there are 10 pairs of apples and plums .

Each pair contains two fruits .

So, 10 pairs contains fruit = 10 *2 = 20 fruits.

This means there are 10 apples and 10 plums

Now we are given that there are the same number of apples and pears.

So, no. of pears = number of apples = 10

So, total fruits = 10+10+10 =30

Hence Charlie could gather 30 fruits .
