RIDDLE: Mr. and Mrs. Smith were walking home from the shipping mall with their purchases when Mr. Smith began to complain that his load was too heavy. Mrs. Smith turned to her husband and said "I don't know what you're complaining about because if you gave me one of your parcels I would have twice as many as you and if I gave you just one of mine we would have equal loads." How many parcels was each carrying?
