Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request in Swahili. Please answer in Swahili.

### Instruction:
Barbie enjoys buying jewelry. One day, she bought 12 pairs of earrings, and gave half of them to Alissa, making Alissa's total number of collections to be triple the number of earrings she was given. How many earrings does Alissa have now?

### Response:
 Ikiwa Barbie alinunua jozi 12 za vipuli vya masikioni, idadi jumla ya vipuli ni 12*2 = <<12*2=24>>24.
Ikiwa alimpa nusu yao Alissa, Alissa alipokea 1/2*24 = 12 vipuli.
Baada ya kupokea vipuli 12, idadi jumla ya vipuli vya Alissa imekuwa mara tatu ya idadi ya vipuli alivyopewa, jumla ya vipuli 3*12 = <<3*12=36>>36.
