Both are right but the meanings are different. 'He does not like bananas or apples' asserts two things: 'He does not like bananas'; 'He does not like apples.' He does not like bananas and apples means that he does not like bananas and apples together (eaten at the same time).
Sometimes you can think of things instead of letters, for example...3a + 2a = ?If that was 3 apples plus 2 apples equals ... ? then you could do it, right?3 apples + 2 apples = 5 apples3a + 2a = 5aAnd the same with MINUS...10b - 7b = ?10 bananas - 7 bananas = 3 bananas10b - 7b = 3bOf course, you can't add bananas and apples, you have to count them separately, so...3a + 4b + 7a - 2b= 3 apples + 4 bananas + 7 apples - 2 banana= 10 apples + 2 bananas= 10a +2b(You can't add these two together)After that it gets more complicated...
If there were three bananas, and you've taken one banana, then there are two bananas left.
If there are three apples in a tree and you take two, then you have the TWO apples that you took.
You cannot take three apples from two apples. Two apples is less than three. You can only take up to two apples from two apples. There is no such thing as a negative apple.
