A quick search didn't help.
Is there a way to tell FGU (5e ruleset) to roll different dice but not adding them togehter?
Example: roll 1d3 and 1d100
I have a reddit list of three difeerent d100 tables and I wan to randomize on which of the 3 lists I am going to roll.
Thanks in advance :)

Hi there, Vassago77! It sounds like you want to create nested tables.
You need to create a table with three results, each of those results being a roll on another table. I've put together an example and taken pictures so you can walk through the process.
First, you'll want to create your base table so that you can copy the table names irectly over to your new tables for consistency (sans the square brackets on the Table's title line.)

Once you've built that primary table, you'll need to build the tables that are being referenced. I condensed my last picture to a point after I had created three more tables populated with results, and included an example roll in the chat.

Here is an article from the official Fantasy Grounds Unity reference resource that can elaborate further. I hope this helps!

Not the way you want. You would make 4 tables. First three tables with the d100 rolls and then a d3 table to choose which table to roll on. That is the literal answer to your question.
However in FG you could just make one table combining all three d100 tables, ie just make one d300 table since you are not bound to rolling physical dice.
