Question 78414
If there are 17 different ingredients for a burrito, how many different combinations can be made? How many years would it take to try all the combinations?
-----------
A combination either has or does not have a particular ingredient.
The # of possible combinations is 2^17=131,072 
-------------
If you tried one a day that would take 131,072 combos/365days =359+ years
