4 0

8 more toys

40% of 80=32 (boy toy)
60% of 80=48 (girl toy)

50% of 32 is 16
50% of 48 is 24

24-16=8

Answer: 8 more girl toys than boy toys

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to find out how many of the toys are for boys and girls.

———————————————

80 * 40 = 80 * 0.4 = 32

32 toys are for boys

———————————————

80 - 32 = 48

48 toys are for girls

———————————————

Now find 50% of the boy and girl toys.

32 * 50% = 32 * 0.5 = 16

48 * 50% = 48 * 0.5 = 24

———————————————

Now subtract the number of girl toys by the number of boy toys to find out how many more were made for girls than boys.

24 - 16 = 8
