A casual fast food restaurant offers 4 different toppings that each can be served over one of 3 bases: a piece of fry bread, a salad, or on rice. Further, customers can choose one of 3 different sauces to be served with their order.

How many distinct filling-base-sauce combinations does a customer at this restaurant have to choose from?

Answer: 36 combinations

Explanation:

Since you have 4 toppings, 3 bases and 3 sauces, you can just multiply them to get the different combos.

4 * 3 * 3

= 36
