Given that,
Emily and Jasmine had the same number of stamps. After Emily gave 42 stamps to Jasmine, Jasmine had twice as many stamps as Emily. How many stamps did Jasmine have in the end is to be determined.

What is arithmetic?

In mathematics, it deals with numbers of operations according to the statements.

Here in the question,
Let both Emily and jasmine have the same number of stamps be x,
Emily gave 42 to Jasmine = x - 42
Jasmine gets 42 from Emily = x + 42
Jasmine had twice as many stamps as Emily.
x + 42 = 2(x - 42)
x + 42 = 2x - 84
2x - x  = 84 + 42
x = 126

Now,
Emily gave 42 to Jasmine = x - 42
                                           = 126 - 42
                                          =  84
Jasmine gets 42 from Emily = x + 42
                                              = 126 + 42
                                              = 168

Thus, in the end, jasmine has 168 stamps while Emily gives 42 stamps to jasmine.
