Q. Practice.\newlineA sporting goods store offers 33 different types of bicycles (mountain, racing, and BMX) and 33 different wheel sizes ( 2020 in., 2222 in., and 2424 in.). How many bicycle choices does the store offer?
  1. Identify Bicycle Choices: To determine the total number of bicycle choices, we need to consider the different types of bicycles and the different wheel sizes. Since there are 33 types of bicycles and 33 different wheel sizes, we can use the multiplication principle of counting to find the total number of combinations.\newlineCalculation: 33 types of bicycles ×\times 33 wheel sizes
  2. Perform Multiplication: Now we perform the multiplication to find the total number of bicycle choices.\newlineCalculation: 3×3=93 \times 3 = 9
  3. Total Bicycle Choices: We have found that there are 99 different bicycle choices available at the store, considering the combination of bicycle types and wheel sizes.
