The number of pumpkins that are in the pumpkin patch is 13

From the question, we are to determine the number of pumpkins in the pumpkin patch

Let the number of pumpkin in the pumpkin patch be x

From the given information,

"<em>The number of pumpkins in the pumpkin patch increased by 10 is the same as triple the number of pumpkins diminished by 16</em>"

That is,

x + 10 = 3x - 16

Now, solve for x

Solving for x

x + 10 = 3x - 16

10 + 16 = 3x - x

26 = 2x

x = 26/2

x = 13
