Question 1176913: A sundae is made from a scoop of ice cream, a sauce, and a topping sprinkled over top.
We have chocolate, vanilla and strawberry ice cream; hot fudge, caramel, strawberry, and marshmallow sauce; and peanuts, chopped cherries, chocolate jimmies, or rainbow nonpareils to go on top.
How many distinct sundaes can be made?

3 ways for the ice cream*4 types of sauces*4 types of sprinkles.
That would be 48 types of sundaes.
