Start with a collection of 24 things each.
Players take it in turns to roll the dice to determine how many groups their collection needs to be shared into.
The player works out the solution to their division problem and explains their thinking to their partner who records their move.
If the product cannot be evenly divided, players keep the remainders, and the collection of counters they were working with is reduced.
The player who reduces their collection to only 2 counters is declared the winner.
