Clare is making a smoothie. The recipe calls for one kind of fruit and one kind of juice. There are 6 kinds of fruit and 3 kinds of juice to choose from. Next, Clare will add one of the 5 different flavors of frozen yogurt. The final touch is a fruit garnish on top, and Clare has 2 different garnishes. How many different smoothies can Clare make?

Answer:180

Explanation:

If there are 6 kinds of fruit and three kinds of juice, lets say these are the only 2 choices so far. With 6 fruits and 3 juices, Clare can make 18 different smoothies. Next, lets take the 5 frozen yogurts. If Clare can make 18 different types of smoothies without the frozen yogurt, then we are now adding 5 variations to all 18, meaning there is now 90 different types of smoothies. Finally, she has 2 garnishes to top it with, so there are 2 different variations to the 90 existing smoothies, which in total, comes out to 180 different types of smoothies that Clare can make.
