Question 2 • Common Core Math 7 - MA3107 CR
Answer:
Based on the fundamental counting principle, the product of the number of options for color and the number of options for style must equal the total number of outcomes. If there are 8 total outcomes, the possible combinations of colors and styles are (1, 8), (2, 4), (4, 2), or (8, 1) because these are the pairs of factors that multiply to 8.
