We can let Rashed's Books = p and Jennifer’s Books = 1.4p.
If Rashed is given 45 Books from Jennifer, he will have (p + 45) Books, and
Jennifer will have (1.4p - 45) Books.
We can create the equation:
1.1(1.4p - 45) = p + 45
1.54p - 49.5 = p + 45
0.54p = 94.5
p = 175
So Jennifer initially had 175 x 1.4 = 245 Books.
