In an experiment each of 30 blood samples was halved, one half being assigned
randomly to one method, the other half to the other method.
We have 60 cases of 3-part compositions but these are
essentially 30 pairs of related compositions. All 3-part portions sums to one,
except for some rounding errors.References
