Today's special at an ice cream shop is a $5.00 sundae with one scoop of ice cream, one sauce, and one topping. The options for the sundae are listed in a table. How many different sundaes can you make?

You can use the fundamental counting principle and multiply the number of outcomes in each group:

4 ice cream flavors · 5 sauces · 4 toppings = 80 different sundaes
