Bruno is designing his next skateboard. The skateboard store has 3 types of grip tape, 13 types of decks, 7 types of trucks, 4 types of bearings, and 2 types of wheels. How many different skateboards can Bruno create?

Answer 1

Answer:

2,184 different skateboards

(3)(13)(7)(4)(2) combinations he can make
