Genesis is trying to pick out an outfit for the first day of school. She can choose from 7 pairs of pants, 2 t-shirts, 3 sweaters or hoodies, and 3 pairs of shoes. How many different outfits does Genesis have to choose from?
To find the total number of different outfit combinations, we multiply the number of choices for each category of clothing.
Total outfits = (7 pants options) x (2 t-shirt options) x (3 sweater or hoodie options) x (3 shoe options)
Total outfits = 7 x 2 x 3 x 3
Total outfits = 126
Genesis has 126 different outfit combinations to choose from.
