1)3 breads x 5 meats x 2 vegetables=30 different possible combinations.
2)Six automobiles parked in a straight line equal: 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1=720 different possible line-ups, starting from left to right.
3)24 different cards dealt 5 at a time would be 24 choose 5, or 24!/19!5!, or 42504 different hands possible. ☺☺☺☺
