Fundamental Counting Principle

The Fundamental Counting Principle states that if there are 'm' ways to do one thing and 'n' ways to do another, then there are m × n ways to do both.

60 (4 trim levels × 5 colors × 3 interiors = 60)

A sample space is a list of all possible outcomes of an event.

{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}

1,000,000 (10^6 = 1,000,000) because there are 10 choices for each digit.

A combination is a selection of items where the order does not matter.

A permutation is an arrangement of items where the order does matter.

A sample space is the set of all possible outcomes, while an event is a specific outcome or set of outcomes from the sample space.

Multiply the number of outcomes for each event together.
