Which number counts? Hyperbole and real numbers in maths, sentence 7

Who acts: you, numbers, question, thing · What happens: calculate, ask, be · To what, where: thing, feelings · Speech: someone speaks here

This is a sentence of the lesson «Which number counts? Hyperbole and real numbers in maths» of the language course of Mova's primary school. The page gives its syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies — and its pragmatics clause by clause: who acts (you, numbers, question, thing), what happens, when and where, as Mova's frames read it from the tree.
