a = amount of token at first
used at ring toss = 3/8 a
used at dart = 2/5 × (remaining from ring toss)
= 2/5 × (a - 3/8 a)
= 2/5 × 5/8 a
= 2/8 a
remaining from ring toss and dart + 35 = total tokens + 10
(total - used at ring - used at dart) + 35 = total tokens + 10
(a - 3/8 a - 2/8 a) + 35 = a + 10
3/8 a + 35 = a + 10
35 - 10 = a - 3/8 a
25 = 5/8 a
a = 25 × 8 ÷ 5
a = 40
So, total tokens at first is 40
