\(\begin{array}{rrrr} \hline & 22 & 14 & 12 \\ \hline & -2 & 0 & +2 \\ =& 20 & 14 & 14 \\ & -4 & +4 & 0 \\ =& 16 & 18 & 14 \\ & 0 & -2 & +2 \\ = & 16 & 16 & 16 \\ \hline \end{array}\)

You give 14 apples to group 2 from group 1 now having 8 apples in group 1 and 28 apples in group 2. From group 2 with 28 apples give group 3 12 apples leaving group 2 with 16 apples group 1 with 8 apples and group 3 with 24 apples. Finally give group 1 8 apples from group 3 and you have every group with 16 apples! Hope this helped. :)
