The sum of the parts is greater than the whole. An interactive uses a Venn-like model to show the percentage of females from a survey that have a blue dress, a red dress, or both. The pupils determine the numbers in each category given the percent of overlap in multiple situations. Scholars determine why the total of all the categories is more than the total number of females.
