Answer 2

John has 21 more marbles than Giri in the end

1. Let us assume that John had x marbles.

2. Therefor, Giri has 90+x marbles.

3. Giri lost 15 marbles and now has 90+x-15=75+x marbles

4. John lost 36 marbles and now has x-36 marbles.

5. Since Giri gave John 66 marbles, Giri now has 75 +x -66= 9+x marbles.

6. Since John received 66 marbles from Giri, John now has x-36+66 =x+30 marbles.

7. Hence, John has x+30-(9+x) marbles more than Giri=21.
