How many marbles did Betty give Stuart? ** If Betty had 60 marbles, she gave Stuart 40/100*60=<<60/100*40=24>>24 marbles.
How many marbles did Stuart have initially? ** Since the number of marbles in Stuart's collection increased to 80 after Betty gave him 24 marbles, the number of marbles he initially had is 80-24=<<80-24=56>>56
