You have a system with three conditions: C1, C2, and C3, each can be Yes or No. How many unique rules (rows) should a complete decision table have to cover all combinations?
A8
B12
C9
D6
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Calculate total combinations for three binary conditions

    Each condition has 2 states (Yes/No). Total combinations = 2 * 2 * 2 = 8.
  2. Step 2: Understand decision table rows

    Each unique combination corresponds to one rule (row) in the decision table.
  3. Final Answer:

    8 -> Option A
  4. Quick Check:

    2^3 = 8 rules needed [OK]
Quick Trick: Use 2^number_of_conditions for total rules [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Adding conditions instead of multiplying
  • Using wrong powers (like 3^2)
  • Confusing rules with actions
