Answer:

Total number of choices with a straw: 12

Total number of choices without a straw: 12

Total number of choices: 24

Explanation:

Taj has a choice of:

  • water, iced tea, or lemonade (3 options)
  • with lemon or lime twist (2 options)
  • served in a small or large glass (2 options)

This made a total of 3*2*2: 12 different choices

if the drink can be served with or without a straw, he choices are doubled, making a total of 2*12 = 24
