Since the total number of cards doesnt change, it is the same when the ratio is 3:1. You can work out how many 3 units is, which is 198 cards
Since he gave her 1/10 before, he now has 198 cards. This means that 198 cards is 9/10 of what he had. From there, you can work out how many he had at first, which is 220.
The total is 264. He had 220 at the start, hence she has 264-220 which is 44. The ratio is 220:44 that is 5:1
You can now calculate how many cards each person has at every trade. You find the difference from the start to the end and you can find how many she won from him. You should get 124 cards
Hope it helps!
