The correct answer is 12.

Solution:
Consider the hexagon table below:
A hexagon has 6 sides.
So, 1 hexagonal table has 6 sides.
Each side of the table is for 1 person.
So, 6 persons sit on one such a table.
Regina has 2 of these hexagonal tables.
That is, 2 tables × 6 persons = 12 persons.
So, Regina can have 12 persons over for dinner.
