There are seven vocalists, four guitarists, four drummers, and two bassists in Glen Oak's music program, while there are five vocalists, eight guitarists, two drummers, and three bassists in Belmont's music program. If a band comprises one vocalist, one guitarist, one drummer, and one bassist, how many more bands can be formed in Belmont?
Answer(s): C
Explanation:
Multiply the numbers of vocalists, guitarists, drummers, and bassists in each town to find the number of bands that can be formed in each town. There are (7)(4)(4)(2) = 224 bands that can be formed in Glen Oak. There are (5)(8)(2)(3) = 240 bands that can be formed in Belmont; 240 224 = 16 more bands that can be formed in Belmont.
