Hey mate!
here is your answer:
let the money with friend 1 be rs x and friend 2 be rs y
when friend 1 gives rs 100
money left with him=x-100
money with friend 2 =y+100
according to the question ,
2(x-100)=y+100
2x-200=y+100
2x-y=100+200
2x-y=300...(1)
now, if friend 2 gives rs ten
money left with friend 2 =y-10
money with friend 1=x+10
according to the question,
6(y-10)=x+10
6y-60=x+10
6y-x=10+60
6y-x=70...(2)
