    Pooja had 50 Euros and Neha had 30.

    Step 1: Pooja gave Neha as many euros as Neha started with => Pooja gave 30 to Neha. Now, Pooja is left with 50 – 30 = 20 whereas Neha had 60 (30 + 30).
    Step 2: Neha then gave Pooja back as much as Pooja had left => Neha gave 20 to Pooja. With this, Pooja had 20 + 20 = 40, while Neha is left with 40.
    Step 3: Pooja then gave Neha back as many euros as Neha had left => Pooja gave all 40 she had, leaving her broke, while Neha got 40 + 40 = 80.
