There will be $8$ teams each having $4$ girls and $7$ boys.

As there are $32$ girls and $56$ boys,

we look at the GCF of $32$ and $56$ , which is $8$

So there will be $8$ teams and

each team will have $32/8=4$ girls and $56/8=7$ boys.

There are 3232 girls and 5656 boys. How many teams can be formed all having equal number of girls and boys?
