m = 2 d (initially)
After Matt gives Dave 10, they have new amounts m' and d'.
m' = 2 d - 10
d' = d + 10

David: d stickers
Matt: 2d stickers
after give-away ...
David : d+10
Matt : 2d - 10
The question is not clearly stated.
Since you used the present tense throughout, one is forced to wonder if Matt "has" twice a many as David before or after the transfer.
I actually interpreted it as
Matt had twice .....
