Answer:

27

Explanation:

Jeffrey has three choices for breakfast: toast, cereal, or pancakes. Then, he has three choices for lunch: toast, cereal, or pancakes. Finally, he has three choices for dinner: toast, cereal, or pancakes.

Putting these together, Jeffrey has 3 * 3 * 3 = 27 possible ways to select the three meals.
