Answer / sumedh

0, as camel eats 1 banana per KM. camel can carry max 1000
bananas. market is 1000KM away so camel eats 1*1000=1000
bananas. on each trip he will carry 0 banana at the market.

to come back from market to desert owner has to buy 1000
bananas for camel.

so it requires 6000 bananas for 3 trips.
