Answer:
Number of coupons sent to Existing members = 33
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of coupons sent out = 231
Let :
6 times as many to potential members = 6 * X = 6X
while existing members = X
therefore 6X + X = 231
7X = 231
therefore X = 231 / 7 = 33
so existing members = 33
while potential members = 6 * 33 = 198
