Answer:
364ways
Explanation
This is a problem on combination. Combination has to do with selection. For example if r objects are to be selected from a pool of n objects, this can be done in nCr ways.
nCr = n!/(n-r)!r!
If a brand has 14brands of hot sauce and he is to pick 3 to mix into a gumbo, he can select those 3 from a pool of 14brands in 14C3 number of ways.
14C3 = 14!/(14-3)!3!
14C3 = 14!/11!3!
14C3 = 14×13×12×11!/11!×6
14C3 = 14×13×12/6
14C3 = 14×26
14C3 = 364ways
