Let me use "•••" to represent 1 unit for Muthu's marbles and the symbol "|" to separate the units for Abdul's 5 units.

DAN | ••• | ••• | ••• | ••• | ••• (total: 328)

DAN | ••• (total: 176)

You can see that the difference between the two will be ••• | ••• | ••• | •••, which is basically 4 units as reflected in your actual model on the paper.

4 units = 328 - 176
4 units = 152
1 unit = 38

So, Muthu has 38 marbles.

But Muthu and Dan has 176 marbles.

Dan's marbles
= 176 - 38
= 138
