Reasoning
Working backwards …

I ended up with 34 strawberries, so I had 102 before giving Charlie two thirds.

I ate 6 myself, so I had 108 before I ate those.

I had 108 strawberries, so I had 162 before giving Billie one third.

I ate 3 myself, so I had 165 before I ate those.

I had 165 strawberries, so I had 330 before giving Alex one half.
