Question 1036478: There three cages arranged in a row. how many ways can you put a tiger, a monkey, and a koala into these cages so that no animal gets eaten , (the monkey and koala can also go into one cage as they wont be eaten)
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Cage the tiger first. This can be done in 3 ways. Now cage either the monkey or the koala next. This can be done in two ways. (The monkey or the koala cannot be joined with the tiger.) Now cage the (third) remaining animal, which can be done again in 2 ways. (The monkey and the koala can be joined together.)
Therefore there are 3*2*2 = 12 ways you can put a tiger, a monkey, and a koala into these cages so that no animal gets eaten.
