Fork Tongue Hand Puzzle

Can you solve this tricky math puzzle that is viral in social media groups? The correct answer with explanation is given below.

ANSWER'

16 is the answer

Explanation
Equation 1: (2 + 2) + (2 + 2) = 16   (So, the value of 1 Fork = 2)
Equation 2: 8 x 8 = 64   (So, the value of 1 Mouth = 8; Also note that there are 4 teeth in mouth, so the value of 1 tooth is 2)
Equation 3: 9 x 9 = 81   (So, the value of 1 Hand = 9; Also note that there are 3 fingers up in one hand, so the value of 1 finger is 3)
Equation 4: (2 + 2) + 6 + 6 = 16  (Here, Hand has only 2 fingers up, therefore Hand = 3+3 = 6 & Mouth has only 3 teeth here, so Mouth = 2+2+2=6)
