To determine the total number of different sandwiches the deli can create, we can use the multiplication principle of counting.
The deli offers:
- 5 types of meat
- 2 types of cheese
- 3 types of bread
We calculate the total number of combinations by multiplying the number of choices for each component of the sandwich:
\[
\text{Total sandwiches} = (\text{number of meats}) \times (\text{number of cheeses}) \times (\text{number of breads})
\]
\[
\text{Total sandwiches} = 5 \times 2 \times 3
\]
\[
\text{Total sandwiches} = 30
\]
Thus, the deli serves a total of **30 different sandwiches**.
The correct response is **30**.
