Question

In a computer game, when choosing a character there are 5 choices for hair style, 3 choices for eye color, and 7 choices for outfits. How many different characters are possible if you were to choose 1 hair style, 1 eye color, and 1 outfit?
105
140
22
15

Answer 1

Hey there!

If there are 5 choices for a hairstyle, that means that there are 5 options per 1 eye color. This totals out to 15 options (3 × 5) total for eye color and hairstyle combinations. 

For each of those combinations, there are an additional 7 options for an outfit. That means that there is a total of 105 options (7 × 15) available to choose from. 

Hope this helped you out! :-)
