I see that it's not the answer you have there but I just checked again and the sum of every row is indeed 50 so I don't see why that shouldn't be counted as a correct answer since you can math the missing number from there just as you can from the squares solution.
Yes, have the point. I am pretty flabergasted at how shoddy all these puzzle books are. How did they get published?
Abiguity and multiple solutions that aren't acknowledged all around.

6. Seven applewomen, possessing respectively 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, 120, and 140 apples, went to market and sold all their apples at the same price, and each received the same sum of money. What was the price? [5 points]
Why cant the answer be that they sold their apples free of charge for this one as we answered ?
Sold are their apples at the same price - Zero
And everyone received the same sum of money - Zero
The price was zero, aka, they gave them away for free.
