Answer:
<em>It will take a week to taste all the cheeseburgers possible</em>.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Number of buns of different types = 12
Number of cheeses of different types = 7
Number of lettuce of different types = 4
Number of tomatoes of different types = 3
Time taken to eat one cheeseburger = 10 minutes
To find:
Total time taken to eat all the possible cheeseburgers = ?
Solution:
First of all, we need to find out what all possible number of cheeseburgers can be made using the given number of ingredients.
<em>Total number of possible ways to make cheeseburgers = Number of choices of buns </em><em> Number of choices of cheeses </em>
<em> Number of choices of Lettuces </em>
<em> Number of choices of tomatoes</em>
And this number of choices are nothing but the number of types of ingredients available.
So, total number of cheeseburgers possible = 12 7
4
3 = 1008
Time taken to eat 1 cheeseburger = 10 minutes
Time taken to eat 1008 cheeseburger = 10 1008 = <em>10080 minutes = 168 hours = 7 days</em>
i.e. <em>It will take a week to taste all the cheeseburgers possible</em>.
