Practice makes perfect

Marcus has to choose one of each cell phone options when buying a cell phone.

Cell Phone Options Number of Choices
phone style 15
minutes package 5
Internet access 3
text messaging 4
insurance 2

Since the number of phone styles is related to the number of options we have, we can use the Fundamental Counting Principle.

Therefore, the number of possible choices of a cell phone is the product of number of choices for each cell phone option in the table. 15 * 5 * 3 * 4 * 2 = 1800
