Respuesta :

Answer:

96 combinations

Step-by-step explanation:

when you get a question like this you multiply all the numbers and you get total number of combinations possible

Answer:

36 outcomes

As this a sandwich shop it uses bread for all meats.

3 x 4 x 3 = 36

Because 3 x 4 = 12

As the toppings are only repeated 8x3 = 24 and alongside this we add the shorter combinations to this  

Step-by-step explanation:

B1  M1    <  B1 M2 <  B1 M3  < B1 M4  < B1 M1 T1  < B1 M1 T2 < B1 M1 T3  to B1 M1 T8 etc = 12 combinations step 1

B2   M1  repeat above with B2 to replace B1 above  = 12

B3   M1  repeat above with B3 to replace B1 above = 12

As we only multiply whole numbers together if we are looking for an order of sequence such as combinations to a safe number code or how people stand in a queue etc back to middle number. We would get 96

Bread x middle value then outcome x toppings = 36 outcomes
