Default Math Problem

Hal gives Tom as many raffle tickets as Tom first had and Gary as many as Gary first had. Then Tom gives Hal and Gary as many tickets as they then had. Finally, Gary gives Tom and Hal as many tickets as they currently had. Hal, Tom, and Gary end up with 40 tickets each. How many tickets did Hal, Tom, and Gary each have to start with?
