Supposed a Grade 8 student is to choose from Mandarin, Nihongo, French, or
Spanish as his elective course for foreign language. He, likewise, has to choose from
Classical Music, Painting, or Speech and Drama as an elective course for arts. How
many possible ways can he choose his electives?
Solution:
If no restrictions will be imposed on selecting electives (), then the possible outcomes are as follows:
