Forty slips of paper are numbered 1 through 40 and are distributed among a group of people. A random number generator is used to select a single number between 1 and 40, inclusively.

A fair decision is made using this process.

How many people could be in this group?

A fair decision would mean that all people get the same number of slips.  This could only happen with 8 people from the possibile numbers supplied.
