Let the number of marbles John had be x
 ThenThe number of marbles Giri had=x+90As, Giri lost 15 marbles and John lost 36 marblesSo, the number of marbles John had now=x-36And the number of marbles Giri had now=x+90-15=x+75Also, after giving 66 marble to John,the number of marbles  John had now=x+75+66=x+141and the number of marbles left with Giri=x-36-66=x-102Now,As, x+141-x-102=x+141-x+102=243So, John have 243 more marbles than Giri have at the end
