Help please?!
Ping is deciding what to choose for dinner from a menu. He can choose 1 of 3 pasta meals, 1 of 7 chicken meals, or 1 of 3 fish meals. How many ways can Ping choose a dinner meal?
a. 3
b. 13
c. 30
d. 63
Am I supposed to multiply to get the answer? Or add? I'm a bit lost!!
Based on the given description above, the correct answer would be option D. 63. How is that so. So here it is: 1 combination of 3 pasta meals (1*3) 1 combination of 7 chicken value meals (1*7) 1 combination of 3 fish meals (1*3) (1*3)(1*7)(1*3) would be 63. That makes Ping can choose a dinner meal in 63 ways. Hope that this is the answer you are looking for.
