Please, someone help me. I cannot for the life of me figure this problem out and no one I know is any good with anything but basic multiplication.
A pizza shop has three different crusts, seven different toppings, and three different cheeses. A special offers a pizza with one crust, three toppings, and one cheese. How many different pizza choices are there?
If you can at least give me a clue I would be eternally grateful.
