g A restaurant offers 7 entrees and 11 desserts. In how many ways can a person order a two-course meal?

Answer 1

`2-course\ meal = 77\ ways`

Explanation:

Given

`Entrees = 7`

`Desserts = 11`

Required

Determine the number of ways to get a two-course meal

This is solved as follows:

The entrees can be ordered in 7 ways

The desserts can be ordered in 11 ways;

`2-course\ meal = Entrees * Desserts`

Hence:

`2-course\ meal = 7 * 11`

`2-course\ meal = 77\ ways`
