Q. Farid is at a music festival where several bands play at the same time. There are 44 bands playing from 3:003:00 to 4:004:00, and 33 bands playing from 4:004:00 to 5:005:00. Assuming Farid goes to see exactly one band every hour, how many different sets of bands can Farid see at the music festival?\newline____ ways
  1. Identify number of bands: Step 11: Identify the number of bands playing each hour.\newlineFrom 3:003:00 to 4:004:00, there are 44 bands.\newlineFrom 4:004:00 to 5:005:00, there are 33 bands.
  2. Calculate total combinations: Step 22: Calculate the total number of different sets of bands Farid can see.\newlineSince Farid can see one band each hour, he has 44 choices in the first hour and 33 choices in the second hour.\newlineTo find the total combinations, multiply the number of choices from each hour: 44 bands ×\times 33 bands.
  3. Perform multiplication: Step 33: Perform the multiplication to find the total number of different sets. 4×3=124 \times 3 = 12.
