Parent volunteers made lunches for a 10th-grade field trip. Each lunch had a peanut butter and jelly or a deli-meat sandwich; a bag of potato chips or pretzels; an apple, an orange, or a banana; and juice, water, or soda.

How can you use the Fundamental Counting Principle to find the probability of an event occurring?
