Rihan and Riyasa have carried three suitcases each.
Comment:
Atatu blangan has the sense of 'one by one' here (as opposed to 'three suitcases at a time'), although that can be left non-explicit, which is why blangan is optional in the sentence. Atatu is the reduplication of atu (or attu) meaning 'one' or 'an'.
