Question

When buying a new dress, you have a choice of 3 different lengths, 5 different colors, and 2 different styles. How many choices are there for one dress?
A. 13
B. 15
C. 30
D. 32

Answer 1

There are 25 people competing in a race. In how many ways can they finish in first and second place?

A. 49
B. 400
C. 600
D. 625

Answer 2

D. 32 (3 lengths x 5 colors x 2 styles = 30, but since we're asked for the number of choices, we include not choosing a length/color/style as an option, so 30 + 2 = 32)

Answer 3

D. 625

There are 25 options for first place and 24 options for second place (since the winner cannot also be the runner-up). Therefore, the total number of ways they can finish in first and second place is 25 x 24 = 600.
