Answer 2

56grms

Step-by-step explanation:

In the sixth vertical string on the right, we have two cherries.

Since it is balanced, each of the other 3 strings(3rd, 4th and 5th) on the right will weigh two cherries.

Therefore:

Right Hand Side(3rd, 4th,5th and 6th string) = 4 X 2 Cherries=8 Cherries

The fist string carries a weight of 2 Mushrooms

Therefore the second string will also weight Two Mushrooms.

Left Hand Side(1st and 2nd string)=2 X 2 Mushrooms =4 Mushrooms

Therefore:

Right Hand Side=Left Hand Side

8 Cherries=4 Mushrooms

One Cherry is 7 grams

Therefore:

4 Mushrooms =7 X 8 =56 Grams

The total weight of the left hand side is 56 grams. Therefore, the exotic fruit weighs 56 grams.
