-
(Number of T-shirts) x (Number of Jeans) => 5 x 3=15
Explanation:
Say that the 5 different Shirts are A, B, C, D, E
And that the 3 different pairs of jeans are X, Y, Z
Sam could wear Shirt A and have the choice to wear either Jeans X, Y, or Z => 3
Same with Shirt B, C, D, E.
Therefore, it's 5 x 3=15
i hope my explanation wasn't too confusing :)
