JellyBean Favorite Flavors- Word Problem

 
 
Reply Tue 8 Nov, 2011 06:29 pm
A pack of Jellybeans contains 7 different flavors: Apricot, Banana, Coconut, Date, Eggplant, Fig, and Grape. You can Eat each flavor individually or come up with some crazy combinations. How many flavor combinations are possible with these 7 flavors alone or mixed? You can use only use one flavor per combination. Example, no ABBC, but ABDEF is good.

@Lindastanich,
Hint: For every combination, each of the seven flavors is either included, or it isn't.
