There are 35 possible combinations.
This can be calculated using the combination formula:
nCr = n! / (r! * (n-r)!)
Where n is the total number of toppings (7) and r is the number of toppings needed for each sundae (4).
So, nCr = 7! / (4! * (7-4)!) = 35
there are 7 toppings. if a sundae must have 4 toppings how many combinations can you make
3 answers
what if there were only 6 toppings
If there were only 6 toppings, the number of possible combinations for a sundae with 4 toppings would be:
nCr = 6! / (4! * (6-4)!) = 15
Therefore, there would be 15 possible combinations of 4 toppings from the 6 available.
nCr = 6! / (4! * (6-4)!) = 15
Therefore, there would be 15 possible combinations of 4 toppings from the 6 available.
