70-50 is the cookie difference from the first day and last day.

As cindy gives 2 more cookies away everyday, so we divide the total cookie diff(20) by the daily cookie diff(2) to find out the number of days

To get the original amt of cookies, we get Cookies left (70) + cookies she gave away, 10 days x cookies she gave away each day(3)
