If a car company makes a car with the option of 4 exterior colors, 3 interior colors, and 2 engines, how can the multiplication principle help us to determine the total number of different variations of the car?

Answer:

24 !

Step-by-step explanation:

I can be wrong... but if I remember correctly, by multiplying all three numbers together and getting 24 possible variations, you're taking a shortcut of just matching, for example... one color with three diff interiors and 2 diff engines, one at a time... Whether you do it long-hand like that or just multiply the numbers altogether, you still get the same number of variations.  It's just a quicker method to solve this

4*3*2=24

hope i helped :) !

Answer:

24 different variations

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total number of different variations, take

4 exterior colors* 3 interior colors * 2 engines

4*3*2 = 24
