Default Help me please - Mass of Product from Mass of Reactant

I feel silly asking for help on this question but I have spent 2 hours reading and trying to figure it out myself. Hope you guys can help.

I will type the question and hopefully you can guide me to the correct answer.

Potassium Peroxydisulfate K2S2O8, and important industrial bleaching agent is produced by the reaction (NH4)2S2O8 + 2KHSO4 = K2S2O8 + 2NH4HSO4

What Mass (in grams) of K2S2O8 would be produced when 50.0G OF (NH4)2S2O8 reacts with 50.0g of KHSO4?

I did attempt trying to do it but I could understand the equation or the way of getting it done. The question before it asked for the Limiting Reagent between (NH4)2S208 and KHS04 which I worked it out to be (NH4)2S2O8.

Can anyone please help?

Thanks Aleysha
