How many lollipops did Marlon give Emily? ** Marlon gave Emily 42 x 2/3 = <<42*2/3=28>>28 lollipops.
How many lollipops did Marlon have left? ** So, he only had 42 - 28 = <<42-28=14>>14 lollipops left.
How many lollipops did Marlon give to Lou? ** After keeping 4, Marlon gave 14 - 4 = <<14-4=10>>10 lollipops to Lou.
