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

### Instruction:
Joanna and Jacques had 40 and 60 gumballs, respectively, in their dishes. They then purchased 4 times the number of gumballs they had initially and added these to their dishes. If they decided to put together their gumballs and shared them equally, how many gumballs did each get?

### Response:
 Joanna aliponunua mara 4 idadi ya gumballs alizokuwa nazo awali, aliweka gumballs 40*4 = <<40*4=160>>160 katika sahani yake.
Vivyo hivyo, Jacques alinunua gumballs 60*4 = <<60*4=240>>240 mpya, mara 4 idadi aliyokuwa nayo awali.
Baada ya kununua gumballs mpya, Joanna na Jacques walikuwa na gumballs 160+40 = <<160+40=200>>200 na 240+60 = <<240+60=300>>300 katika sahani zao, mtawalia.
Walipoamua kuweka pamoja gumballs zao ili kuzigawana sawasawa, walikuwa na jumla ya gumballs 300+200 = <<300+200=500>>500.
Baada ya kugawana sawasawa, kila mmoja alipata 500/2 = <<500/2=250>>250 gumballs.
