Leon wants to pick out an outfit for the school dance. He can choose from 4 pairs of pants, 7 shirts, and 2 pairs of shoes. How many different outfits does Leon have to choose from?

Sagot :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First he has to decide on a pair of pants and he has 4 different choices.

For each of those choices he has a choice of 7 different shirts, so that gives him 4 times 7 = 28 different pant/shirt combinations. (I hope none of the pants are striped and none of the shirts have polka-dots).

For each those 28 possibilities, he has 5 different ties he could select, so altogether he has 28 times 5 = 140 different outfits, and some of them may be acceptable to wear in public.

It is simply , 4*5*7=140 ways.
