Given data:

Taco truck has 3 ingredients from onion, cheese , cliantro jalapenos cerma salsa.

to find the gropu of different ingredients to go on taco we fuse combination formula,


^nC_r=(n!)/(r!(n-r)!)

here, n = 4, and r= 3.


\begin{gathered} ^4C_3=(4!)/(3!(4-3)!) \\ =(24)/(6) \\ =4 \end{gathered}

Therefore the customers can choose 4 group of 3 differnt intgredients to go on taco.
