    8 teams

    5 girls and 4 boys

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To determine how many teams we can have, we need to determine the greatest common factor.

    girls:40 = 5*8

    boys:32 = 4*8

    The greatest common factor is 8

    So we will have 8 teams

    There will be 5 girls and 4 boys on each team
