Hello I’m sorry for the super basic question I’m searched for the answer to this for awhile and can’t find an answer like the title says I need to know how many spell slots my level 3 paladin would have I’m very new to dnd.
actually i have a question about this as well. see my group has some newer members so we've taken to mapping out our characters in between sessions just to kinda speed up the process and spend more time playing (and to encourage self research when not playing) than digging through the books and data during game time. well the thing is i've mapped out my paladin to max ending as a lvl 12 pally lvl 8 sorcerer and im coming up with a character with up to a 7th lvl spell slot. the thing that confuses me is that neither of the classes of my character get that high with either of their class levels. so my question is, where the heck are these spell slots coming from?
Spell Slots. You determine your available spell slots by adding together all your levels in the bard, cleric, druid, sorcerer, and wizard classes, half your levels (rounded down) in the paladin and ranger classes, and a third of your fighter or rogue levels (rounded down) if you have the Eldritch Knight or the Arcane Trickster feature. Use this total to determine your spell slots by consulting the Multiclass Spellcaster table.

The spell slots come from your general magical experience. You aren't specifically experienced enough in either class to know level 7 spells, but you can cast the lower level spells you do know as a 7th level spell, gaining any scaling benefits that provides for the spell in question. You can also use the spell slot to power a paladin smite, though its a bit of a waste since those don't get any stronger beyond 4th level spells.

You need to check the Paladin table: https://www.dndbeyond.com/classes/paladin#ThePaladinTable
Oh thank you very much I’m embarrassed at how easy that was!

From the Multiclassing rules:
