Hong is ordering an ice cream dessert. He must order a size, a flavor of ice cream, and a topping. There are 3 sizes, 1 flavor, and 2 toppings to choose from. How many different ice cream desserts could he order?

Ali is ordering an ice cream dessert. He must order a size, a flavor of ice cream, and a topping. There are 2 sizes,3 flavors, and 2 toppings to choose from. How many different ice cream desserts could he order?

To determine the number of different ice cream desserts that Ma can order, we need to multiply the number of choices she has for each category.

Let's break down the options:

1. Sizes: Ma has a certain number of options for the size of her ice cream dessert. Let's say there are n size options.

2. Flavors: Ma also has a certain number of options for the flavor of her ice cream. Let's say there are m flavor options.

3. Toppings: Finally, Ma has a certain number of options for the topping of her ice cream dessert. Let's say there are p topping options.

To calculate the total number of different ice cream desserts, we multiply the number of options for each category:

Total number of different ice cream desserts = (number of size options) x (number of flavor options) x (number of topping options)

In this case, the total number of different ice cream desserts would be n x m x p.

I messed up the question.
