Question

If a menu has 3 different salads and 3 different main courses, and a diner wants to order one of each, how many possible combinations are available to the diner?

Answer 1

9. Just multiply the two numbers together

Answer 2

Answer: 9

Explanation:

Given: The number of different salads = 3

The number of different main courses = 3

It means for dinner there are 3 choices for salads and 3 choices for main courses.

If a diner wants to order one of each, then the possible combinations are available to the diner=
`3*3=9`

Hence, the possible combinations are available to the diner = 9
