Let A wins amount x from B. Then
162 - x =  \frac{4}{5}  \times (180 + x) \\ 810 - 5x = 720 + 4x \\ 9x = 90 \\ x = 10
Verification:
After winning the amount,
A has Rs. 190
B has Rs. 152

4/5 × 190 = 4 × 38 = 152

BEJOICE: the value of x
BEJOICE: 190 is the verification part
vanihady: so a won 10
BEJOICE: Amount of A after winning from B
vanihady: So A won Rs 10 or not
vanihady: reply dear
BEJOICE: A won 10
vanihady: thanks now i understood the question
BEJOICE: Amount of A after winning is 180+10 = 190
vanihady: ok bye
