Given that Seema has $15$ marbles on Monday
Now, The total marbles Seema has after her brother gave $5$ more on Tuesday $= 15 + 5 \Rightarrow 20$ marbles
After taking away $3$ marbles from Seema on Wednesday $= 20 - 3 \Rightarrow 17$ marbles
After receiving $7$ marbles from her friend on Thursday Seema has $= 17 + 7 \Rightarrow 24$ marbles
After receiving $5$ marbles on Friday from her brother now Seema has $= 24 + 5 \Rightarrow 29$ marbles
