Shiv has 6 markers and Rani has 10 markers. What can they do so that Shiv and Rani have an equal number of markers?

• Rani gives 4 of her markers to Shiv

• Rani gives 2 of her markers to Shiv

• Shiv gives 4 of his markers to Rani

• Shiv gives 2 of his markers to Rani

Answer explanation

If Rani gives Shiv 2 markers - Rani will have 2 less markers. Rani will now have 8 markers (10 - 2 = 8) Shiv will have 2 more markers. Shiv will now have 8 markers (6 + 2 = 8) Now they both have an equal number of markers - 8 each.
