Question

A sundae bar has five toppings to choose from. Any number of toppings can be

chosen. How many different sundaes are possible?

Answer 1

Answer: 32

Explanation:

When given a question where there is a distinct set of items to choose from, the total number of configurations is equal to 2 to the power of number of different choices. Since there are five different choices, the number of different sundaes is equal to 2^5 or 32 sundaes.
