1 answer

To calculate the number of different lunch combo meals that customers can create, we multiply the number of options for each component of the meal:

  • Number of drinks = 2
  • Number of main dishes = 4
  • Number of desserts = 3

Total combinations = (Number of drinks) × (Number of main dishes) × (Number of desserts)

Total combinations = 2 × 4 × 3 = 24

So, the correct statement would be:

Customers can create 24 different lunch combo meals.
