Kathryn plants two different types of tomato plant. She records the number of tomatoes that she picks from each plant every day.
Her records are shown below: Plant A: 4, 6, 7, 3, 5, 2, 1, 3, 6, 5
Plant B: 5, 6, 7, 6, 8, 9, 6, 7, 7, 9
Which plant has the more consistent yield of tomatoes?
The categories add to 100%, so are mutually exclusive, as you expect when they are "favorite sport" categories. Hence the union of two of them will be their sum. (Otherwise, you'd have to subtract the amount by which the categories overlap.)
