subexpression = a+b; role = people count; scope = four groups; formula = a+b; unit = people

subexpression = a+b; role = people count; scope = one group; formula = a+b; unit = people/group

subexpression = a+b; role = group count; scope = all; value = 4; unit = groups

subexpression = a+b; role = adult count only; scope = one group; formula = a; unit = adults
