If there are currently 12 teams and the number of teams is reduced by 4, then there would be 12−4=8 teams. If each team has the same number of players, then the number of players on each team is the total number of players divided by the total number of teams. Since there are 192 players and 8 teams, then each team has 1928=24 players.
