Darell is making a pizza without tomato sauce, which is called a white pizza. Darell will use one of 6 different crusts, and one of 2 different cheeses for the topping. How many different white pizzas can Darell make?
pizzas
Darell can make 12 different white pizzas.
To see why, we can use the multiplication principle of counting. We have 6 choices for the crust, and for each crust choice, we have 2 choices for the cheese topping. So the total number of pizza varieties is:
6 crust choices × 2 cheese choices for each crust = 12 different white pizzas.
