The video explores the fundamental counting principle and its application in solving problems related to combinations and probability. It uses examples like outfit combinations, coin flips, and license plate generation to illustrate these concepts. The video also explains how to use tree diagrams to visualize possible outcomes and calculate probabilities.

What is the fundamental counting principle primarily used for?

• To create tree diagrams

• To list all possible outcomes

• To calculate probabilities directly

• To quickly determine the number of possible outcomes
