you want to order your lunch from school canteen, which offers student meals consisting of 1 cup of rice, 1 meat dish, and 1 vegetable dish. how many choices do you have for your meal if there are 3 choices of meal dishes and 2 choices of vegetable dishes?

Sagot :

Meal Dishes = 3

Vegetable dishes = 2

Using the Fundamental Counting Principle that states that if event A occurs n ways, event B occurs p number of ways, event C occurs q number of ways, then the number of ways that events A, B, and C will occur is 

[tex]n x p x q[/tex] ways. 

So, the answer is 3x2 = 6 ways
