Question

For a class project, students must select one topic from a list of 15 choices. They will also choose one presentation method: written report, oral presentation, or making a game. Use the Fundamental Counting Principle to determine how many different project combinations are possible. (1 point) Responses 15 15 30 30 45 45 60 60

Answer 1

To determine the number of different project combinations possible using the Fundamental Counting Principle, we multiply the number of choices for each category of selection.

1. **Number of topics**: There are 15 choices.
2. **Number of presentation methods**: There are 3 choices (written report, oral presentation, or making a game).

Using the Fundamental Counting Principle, we multiply these numbers together:

\[
\text{Total combinations} = \text{Number of topics} \times \text{Number of presentation methods} = 15 \times 3 = 45
\]

Therefore, the total number of different project combinations possible is **45**.
