Answer 2

224 outcomes

Explanation:

At a local restaurant, a new dinner menu is available that offers 4 courses.

An appetizer, a salad, a main dish, and a dessert all for one price.

There are appetizers = 7 types

salads = 2 types

main dishes = 4

desserts = 4

To calculate how many dinner outcomes are possible from given types of food we have to multiply.

7 × 2 × 4 × 4 = 224 outcomes

224 different dinner outcomes are possible.
