A delicatessen serves 13 kinds of sandwiches and 5 kinds of chips. How many different sandwich and chip lunches can they make if each lunch has one sandwich and one bag of chips?

Answer 1

the sandwich can be chosen in 13 ways and chips in 5 ways

so total combinations possible = 13x 5
= 65 different types of lunches

Answer 2

I didn't realize there was such a simple solution. I thought I would have to break down the variations. Thank you.
