Data:

Domingo: D

Jennifer: J

Initial number of cards:

D=250

J=82

After each meeting(m):

D=250-12m

J=82+12m

After the first meeting: m=1


D=250-12(1)=238
J=82+12(1)=94

You increase in 1 the m after each meeting and get the next table:

Then, they have the same number of cards after 7th meeting
