• according to my understanding the question is about total number of chocolates and not individual.
  
  So my answer would be 140 [35* 4]

• starting A-110, B-10, C-10, D-10.
  after 1) A-50, B-20, C-30, D-40.
  after 2) A-50, B-25, C-30, D-35.
  after 3) A-35, B-35, C-35, D-35.

  1) A-35 B-35 C-35 D-35
  a gives 20% to c and 10% to b,i.e..,70% of x is 35
  so (35/x)*100=70%
  x=50
  20% of x=10
  10% 0f x=5
  now A is 50,B is 35-5=30,C is 35-10=25
  2) A-50 B=30 c=25 D=35
  d gives 1/8 to b,i.e..,
  d-(d/8)=35
  d=40
  1/8 of d=5
  now D=40,B=30-5=25
  3) A=50 B=25 c=25 D=40
  a gives as many to b,twice to c ,thrice to d
  let x be 10
  25-x=b,b=15
  25-2x=c,c=5
  40-3x=d,d=10
  x+2x+3x=60
  a+(x=2x=3x)=110
  3) A=110 B=15 c=05 D=10
  A+B+C+D=140
  35*4=140
