Multiplication Rule for Counting Four wires (red, green, blue, and yellow) need to be attached to a circuit board. A robotic device will attach the wires. The wires can be attached in any order, and the production manager wishes to determine which order would be fastest for the robot to use. Use the multiplication rule of counting to determine the number of possible sequences of assembly that must be tested. Hint: There are four choices for the first wire, three for the second, two for the third, and only one for the fourth.
