Hint:

Consider the equations formed by the number of men, women, and children based on the bananas given.

Solution:

Let M be the number of men, W be the number of women, and C be the number of children. The equations are:
3M + 2W + 0.5C = 25
M + W + C = 25.
Solving these equations, one possible solution is M = 5, W = 10, C = 10.
