📌 TL;DR: Jason has 42 erasers and Richie has 30 erasers. After Jason gave some of his erasers to Richie, the number of game cards they have are in the ratio 1 : 2.
Jason has 42 erasers and Richie has 30 erasers. After Jason gave some of his erasers to Richie, the number of game cards they have are in the ratio 1 : 2. How many erasers does Richie have in the end? Total erasers = 42 + 30 = 72. Since number of erasers exchanged is between the same two persons, the total remains unchanged ie. 1u + 2u = 72. 3u = 72, 1u = 24. In the end, Richie has 2u >>> 2 x 24 = 48 erasers (Answer).
