According to Multiplication Principle, one operation can perform in m ways and another operation can be perform in n ways Then possible number of ways of both two operations occurs simultaneously is m×n ways.
Simillarly, You can travel from Birzeit to Ramallah in 3 different ways ,this is first operation .And from Ramallah to Jerusalem in 2 different way this is another operation.
Therefore , The possible number of different ways you can travel from Birzeit to Jerusalem is
=3×2=6 ways
Let, w1, w2, w3 are 3 different ways you can travel from Birzeit to Ramallah . And R1, R2 are 2 different ways you can travel from Ramallah to Jerusalem .
The 6 possible number of different ways you can travel from Birzeit to Jerusalem are as follows:
w1R1, w2R1, w3R1, w1R2, w2R2, w3R2
