The tailor can create___ outfits.
1 answer:
Answer:
15 outfits
Step-by-step explanation:
We have 3 possibilities for pants and 5 possibilities for tops.
The tailor has 3 possible pants to choose from and 5 possible tops to choose from. Using the Fundamental Counting Principle, we can simply multiply these two together to get the total number of possible outfits:
3 * 5 = 15 outfits
Or, we could make a tree diagram. See attachment. It will give the same answer.
