In cases like these, you simply have to multiply the choices you have for each step.
In fact, you can choose between 4 different crusts. For each of these crusts you can choose 4 different sauces. This means that there are 
choices at this point. In fact, if we call the crust options 1,2,3,4 and the sauce options A,B,C,D, the 16 possible combinations are
From here, you keep going multiplying the number of options for each step, for a total of
36*40+36*40-6*6=2844ft^2
we had to subtract the area of the closet so it wasn't counted twice :P
Answer:
24 purple jelly beans
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told in the question that;
Lucas had a mix of red and purple jelly beans. There were 2 red jelly beans for every 3 purple jelly beans.
The results in a ratio
2:3
Where 2 represented red jelly beans
3 represented purple jelly beans
Total number of jelly beans = 40 jelly beans.
The number of purple jelly beans that we have =
3/( 2 + 3) × 40
= 3/5 × 40
= 3 × 8
= 24.
Hence, there are 24 purple jelly beans in the bag.
