Answer:

18 jujubes

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest way to solve this problem is to work backwards.

Kim has the last 10 jujubes.

If Kyle kept 8 jujubes after giving 10 to Kim, then Kyle had: 10 + 8 = 18 jujubes.

If Jen ate 1/2 of the jujubes and gave the rest to Kyle, then Kyle had 1/2 of Jen's jujubes. Therefore, Jen had 18 × 2 = 36 jujubes.

Therefore, Jen ate 18 jujubes.
