In addition, shirt sizes are small (S), medium (M), large (L), extra large (XL), and extra extra large (XXL), and the shirt comes with either short sleeves or long sleeves. As the inventory manager for L.L. Bean’s western U.S. operations, you are concerned about inventory, basically shelf, space (products with many varieties, or models, require more physical space). How many types of the cotton chambray shirt can be produced?

Answer 1

Answer:

60 types of cotton chambray shirts can be produced

Step-by-step explanation:

The shirt comes in the following colors: blue, stone, rust, green, plum, and indigo

Number of colors the shirt comes in = 6

The shirt comes in the following sizes: small (S), medium (M), large (L), extra large (XL), and extra extra large (XXL)

Number of sizes the shirt comes in = 5

The shirt comes in the following styles: short sleeves or long sleeves

Number of styles the shirt comes in = 2

Total number of cotton chambray shirts that can be produced are:

No. of colors * No. of sizes * No. of styles

6 * 5 * 2

60 shirts

So, 60 types of cotton chambray shirts can be produced from the given options of colors, sizes and styles.
