Answer:

[tex]12\ toys[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x------> amount of toys that Wendy has

y-----> amount of toys that Sean has

c----> amount of toys Wendy has to give Sean so they both have the same number of toys

we know that

[tex]y=x-24[/tex]

[tex]x-c=(x-24)+c[/tex] ------> linear equation that represent the situation

solve for c

[tex]2c=24[/tex]

[tex]c=12\ toys[/tex]
