I think the answer is straightforward, but I might be overthinking it. I just need to remember to multiply all the choices together.

I feel like I practiced this type of problem before, but I can't recall if we had to add anything or just multiply.

I remember a similar question about choosing toppings for a pizza. I think it was just multiplying the choices, so maybe it's 6 times 3 times 2?

I think we need to multiply the options together, but I'm not completely sure if I remember the right formula for combinations.
