    a. There are 10 possible ways. b. There are 4 ways for a round trip c. There are 20 ways without repeating a road. d. There are 100 ways of doing a whole round trip.

    a. For Surrey to Burnaby there are 2 ways and for Burnaby to Coquitlam 5, multiplying the available road gives us all the combinations.

    b. From Surrey to Brunaby and back we have 2 ways going and 2 ways coming back. Multiplying gives us the 4 ways of doing the round trip.

    c. If we don't want to repeat the road we will be using both bridges in Surrey to Brunaby beacause there are only 2 and we cant repeat one, and of the 5 avaliable from Burnaby to Coquitlam we will choose 2, that is, first 1 of 5 and then 1 of 4. Multiplying 5 times 4 gives us the ways of going and coming back without repeating.

    d. For a whole round trip we choose from the bridges from Surrey to Brunaby twice, 2*2 and the roads from Burnaby to Coquitlam also twice, 5*5, giving us a total for a round trip of 100 different ways of doing it.
