Question 795723: 10 flavors of ice cream 7 kinds of toppings how many different selections of one flavor of ice cream and one kind of topping are possible Answer by josmiceli(19441) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! If the flavors are labeled 1 - 10,
you can have:
flavor 1 with any of 7 toppings
OR
flavor 2 with any of 7 toppings
OR
flavor 3 with any of 7 toppings
etc. . .
Since you have OR choices,
you add the possibilities
There are 70 possible selections of 1 flavor and 1 topping
--------------
You could have done it the opposite way, too
topping 1 with any of 10 flavors
OR
topping 2 with any of 10 flavors
OR
topping 3 with any of 10 flavors
etc. . .
This gives you
same answer
