Eva and Jaslyn collected cards. Eva gave 30% of her cards to Jaslyn and as a result, Jaslyn's cards increased by 10%. If Eva had 28 cards left, find the number of cards Jaslyn should give to Eva in the end so that both had an equal number of cards.

110The increase in the number of cards that Jaslyn had is repeated. Make the increase in the number of cards that Jaslyn had the same. LCM of 3 and 1 = 3
7 u = 28
1 u = 28 ÷ 7 = 4
Number of cards that Jaslyn had more than Eva in the end
= 33 u - 7 u
= 26 u
Number of cards that Jaslyn should give to Eva so that both had an equal number of cards in the end
= 26 u ÷ 2
= 13 u
= 13 x 4
= 52
Answer(s): 52
