A movie theater sells 5 different beverages in small, medium, or large cups. If the theater adds one more beverage choice, how does the number of possible combinations change?

Each beverage can be sold in 3 cup sizes, so adding one beverage creates 3 new beverage-and-size combinations: small, medium, and large. Therefore, the number of possible combinations increases by 3, which is choice B.
