Best answer

The card numbers are corresponding to the positions of the first 2 letters of the receiver's name in the alphabet series.
ie.,
ADELE => A=1, D=4 => 14.
BETHANY => B=2, E=5 => 25.
CARLA => C=3,A=1 => 31.
DIANE => D=4, I=9 => 49.
So therefore BARBARA GETS (BA) 21 Cards.

A pack of cards has 40 cards. You are blindfolded. Out of 40, 25 cards are facing down while 15 are facing up. You have been asked to divide this pack of cards into two decks - so that each deck contains an equal number of face up cards. Remember, you are blindfolded.

How will you do it?
