A college student is preparing a course schedule for the next semester. The student may select one of two mathematics courses, one of three science courses, and one of five courses from the social sciences and humanities. How many schedules are possible?

Respuesta :

Answer: There are 30 possible schedules.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Number of choices for mathematics courses = 2

Number of choices for science courses = 3

Number courses of social sciences and humanities=5

By using Fundamental counting principle , the number of different possible schedules :

( Number of choices for mathematics courses )  x ( Number of choices for science courses) x (Number courses of social sciences and humanities)

2 x 3 x 5 = 30

Hence, the number of possible schedules = 30
