|dw:1404750641178:dw| With a tree diagram you draw the first possible choices (turkey, roast beef, ham), then from each of those three choices you draw two other branches representing the choice of potato or corn chips. The final number of end branches is the number of combinations possible, which are 3 choices times 2 = 6
