To determine

To calculate: probability that it will be turkey and Swiss on wheat bread.

Answer to Problem 12PPS

Number of possible sandwiches is $36$ .

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

By using the fundamental principle,

There are $3$ choices for bread, $4$ choice for meat, $3$ choice for cheese.

So possible outcome is:

  $\begin{array}{l}=3\times 4\times 3\\ =36\end{array}$

Thus, number of possible sandwiches is $36$ .

There is one way to make a sandwich that is turkey and swiss on wheat bread.

Therefore, Total number of outcomes in the given situation using fundamental counting principle is $36$ .
