Answer

Calculating this gives us \(\boxed{8}\) different answer sets.

Steps

Step 1 ：The first question has 2 answer choices (Yes / No).

Step 2 ：The second question also has 2 answer choices (Yes / No).

Step 3 ：The third question again has 2 answer choices (Yes / No).

Step 4 ：So, the total number of different answer combinations is \(2 \times 2 \times 2\).

Step 5 ：Calculating this gives us \(\boxed{8}\) different answer sets.
