Step1: Identify fixed and variable choices
Color is fixed (yellow), so we consider model and transmission.
Model options: compact, luxury, sport (3 options).
Transmission options: automatic, manual (2 options).
Step2: Calculate total choices
Using the multiplication principle (for independent choices), total choices = number of model options × number of transmission options.
So, total choices = $3\times2 = 6$.
