Way of presenting sample space having an idea of, “if there are p ways to do one thing, and q ways to do another thing, then there are p x q ways to do both things

A	Tree diagram
B	Fundamental counting principle
C	Listing
D	Table

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -The sample space is represented using the symbol, “S”. The subset of possible outcomes of an experiment is called events. A sample space may contain a number of outcomes that depends on the experiment.

Detailed explanation-2: -A result of an experiment is called an outcome. The sample space of an experiment is the set of all possible outcomes. Three ways to represent a sample space are: to list the possible outcomes, to create a tree diagram, or to create a Venn diagram.

Detailed explanation-3: -Common Core State Standards Math Standard: Represent sample spaces for compound events using methods such as organized lists, tables and tree diagrams. For an event described in everyday language (e.g., “rolling double sixes”), identify the outcomes in the sample space which compose the event.
