Q. Cody is building a set of reference materials for his office. He can choose from 55 dictionaries and 22 thesauruses. Assuming he wants only one of each type of book, how many different sets of reference materials can Cody put together?\newline_________\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ sets
  1. Multiply Choices: To determine the number of different sets Cody can put together, we need to multiply the number of choices for dictionaries by the number of choices for thesauruses, since he wants one of each type.\newlineCalculation: 55 dictionaries ×\times 22 thesauruses =10= 10 sets
