Gap Unit Concept (Full Gap: Similar Change, Shortage)

I want to distribute all my goldfish equally into a number of tanks.
If I put 10 goldfish in each tank, I will be short of 30 goldfish.
If I put 8 goldfish in each tank, I will be short of 6 goldfish.

a) How many tanks are there?
b) How many goldfish are there?

Andre wishes to hold a birthday party and distribute some sweets to every friend at his party.
If he gives 9 sweets to each friend, he would be short of 46 sweets.
If he gives 7 sweets to each friends, he would be short of 8 sweets.
How many friends have been invited to attend Andre's party?
