"shares" is in the 3rd person singular present tense form. Therefore, you'd need to have a singular subject to match it.
But you don't. You have a plural subject: "Big Ma and Cassie" (two people = plural).

In each sentence, if the italicized verb does not agree with the subject, circle the verb and write it correct form.
I will capitalize the verb since I don't know how to italicized.
