Diego's doctor has recommended that his daily diet should include 3 vegetables, 2 fruits, and 2 whole grains. At the grocery store, Diego has a choice of 9 vegetables, 9 fruits, and 11 whole grains. In how many ways can he get his daily requirements if he doesn't like to eat 2 servings of the same thing in 1 day

166320 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we must calculate the number of combinations for each option, and then multiply the result of each one, like this:

Number of ways you can choose 3 vegetables out of 9 available:

nCr = n! / (r! * (n-r)!)

in this case n = 9, r = 3, replacing:

9C3 = 9! / (3! * (9-3)!) = 84

Number of ways you can choose 2 fruits out of 9 available:

9C2 = 9! / (2! * (9-2)!) = 36

Number of ways you can choose 2 whole grains out of 11 available:

11C2 = 11! / (2! * (11-2)!) = 55

So according to the rule of the products how many ways you can choose the daily diet

84*36*55 = 166320
