Question 526273: An automobile manufacturer has three different subcompact cars in their line. Customers selecting one of these cars have a choice of two engine sizes, four body styles, and seven color schemes. How many different selections can a customer make? Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source):
2 ways to pick the engine. For each of those ways, there are 4 ways to pick the body. 2 times 4 is 8. For each of those 8 combinations of body and engine, there are 7 color schemes, so 56.
