I love wordplay, but actually am kinda’ curious on this one. If you don’t already know, any organic matter can be processed into synthetic diamonds - some folks even have their deceased loved ones preserved in that manner. So if x = number of average-sized carrots processed into a synthetic diamond, solve for “x” in this equation:

x carrots = 1 carat

Curious. :-)
