A quick and dirty solution could be 3856, but it depends on assumptions, such as everything with a lolly-stick = 1, even if it’s running into another one or upside-down. Also that the balls of ice cream are the same number whatever size they are. So I don’t think that’s the right answer and I’ll keep looking.

Alf - I did 276 - (20 + 15) to get 241 then x 16 to get 3856.
The first number is 276 rather than 273 or am I misreading it?
Looking again the middle one could be 20 over 15 but that would lead to too many decimal points in the answer.
