Answer 1

Answer:

159720 different ways

Step-by-step explanation:

We go 44 x 55 x 66

Why?

Imagine you can buy 2 types of soups, 2 types of salads, and 2 types of sandwiches. We can draw out the whole possible combinations, but we know a better way of solving this. We go 2 x 2 x 2. Say you have to pick 2 sandwiches and 2 soups. Let's say I pick soup 1, and sandwich 1, or soup 1 and sandwich 2, or soup 2 and sandwich 1, or soup 2 and sandwich 2. These are 4 possibilities, all we had to do for that was 2 x 2.
