    Answer is 60

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The possibility of a salad meal is = 2

    2C1 = 2

    The possibility of a main dish = 6

    6C1 = 6

    The possibility of a dessert is = 5

    5C1 = 5

    So the total possibility is the multiplication of the three i. e

    2*6*5 = 60

    The principle applied is the combination principle.

    Note that C stands for combination
