Exercise 5 Page 918

Use the Fundamental Counting Principle.

20 736

Practice makes perfect

Desiree is creating a new menu for a restaurant and we know that one of each item is ordered.

Menu Titles	Number of Choices
appetizer	8
soup	4
salad	6
entree	12
dessert	9

To find out the number of options we have, we can use the Fundamental Counting Principle.

Therefore, the number of possible combinations of ordered items, with each of the menu titles chosen, is the product of these five values. 8 * 4 * 6 * 12 * 9 = 20 736
