An executive has 6 skirts, 8 jackets, and 6 blouses that all coordinate. If an outfit consists of one skirt, one jacket, and one blouse, how many different outfits does she have?

Work Shown:

6*8*6 = 288

Why does this work? Consider a table that is 6 rows by 8 columns. The rows represent the number of skirts and 8 is the number of jackets. That produces 6*8 = 48 different skirt & jacket combos. We can extend this idea out to any number of items instead of just 2.

6
