Draw 24 counters to be split into pale and dark groups in the ratio 1:2. Find a way to show the split without colouring every counter. Try a total of 25 and ask whether the exact ratio can still use whole counters.
A way to check: three equal parts give 8 pale and 16 dark for 24. For 25 the part size is 25/3, so an exact whole-counter split is impossible. You can choose a different total; you do not need to round the counts.
