After sometimes, one of the friends woke up and divided the mangoes in to three equal numbers. There was one mango extra. He give it to the monkey and took one part for himself and slept again. Next the second friend got up unaware of what has happened, divide the rest of the mangoes in to three equals shares. There was an extra mango. He give to the monkey and took one share for himself and slept again. Next third friends got up not knowing what happened and divide the mangoes in to three equals shares. There was an extra mango. He give it to the monkey, took one share for himself and went to sleep again.
After sometime, all of them got up together to find Thirty mangoes. How many mangoes did the friends pluck initially.
