Thank you for asking the question!
In above case the girl will exert more pressure than the elephant. This is because the girl is wearing the sandals each of 10 cm per square and the surface area of the sandals is less than the surface are of the single foot of elephant which is 25 cm per square. As the surface area is less so the pressure exerted by the girl will be more.
Hope I helped.
