Answer:


Explanation:

There could be 2 3 4 6 or 12. You can use any number that divides evenly into 12. I don't think you can use 1 because the question says members. The next question is, do you include Sharon in the group (so she gives herself a share) and again I will answer yes. She has to get something out of the deal.

2: each member gets 3 red and 3 white. ( don't say 6 red and 6 white.)

3: Each member gets 4 in total 2 red and 2 white each

4: Each member gets 4 in total. This can be split 2 ways.

6: Each member gets 2 in total: 1 red and 1 white.

12: Each member gets 1. 6 get red and the others get white.
