Alice is making a sandwich to pack in her lunch. She has 2 different kinds of bread, 3 cheeses, 4 lunch meats, and 2 condiments to choose from. Assuming she uses one of each of bread, cheese, meat, and condiment, how many different sandwiches can she make?

We use the Fundamental Rule of Counting
  • Bread: 2
  • Cheeses: 3
  • Lunch Meats: 4
  • Condiments: 2

2 * 3 * 4 * 2 = 48 different sandwiches
