    F has 10 marbles and I has 5 marbles.

    Solution:

    From question, given that F has 10 more marbles than I. Both F and I have 15 marbles together.

    So the total number of marbles is 15. We can write equation as

    Total number of marbles = number of marbles of F + number of marbles of I

    15 = number of marbles of F + number of marbles of I

    Given in question that F has 10 more marbles that I, hence it's clear from above equation that number of marbles of F is 10 and number of marbles of I is 5. so together they contain 15 marbles.

    hence F has 10 marbles and I has 5 marbles.
