Final answer:

To find out how many tokens each of you get, subtract the tokens used for the first five games from the total number of tokens you have. Then, divide the remaining tokens equally between you and your friend.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how many tokens each of you get, we need to subtract the tokens used for the first five games from the total number of tokens you have. So, you have 102 - 22 = 80 tokens remaining. Since the remaining tokens are divided equally between you and your friend, you both get half of the remaining tokens. Hence, each of you gets 80 / 2 = 40 tokens.
