In order to find the number of different three course meals that can be made, we just need to multiply the number of possibilities for each ingredient.

If we have 3 salads, 15 pizzas and 4 desserts, the number of different meals is:


3\cdot15\cdot4=180

So a total of 180 different three course meals can be made.
