The first choice can be any one of the 8 side dishes.
For each of these . . .
The 2nd choice can be any one of the remaining 7.
Total number of ways to pick 2 out of 8 = (8 x 7) = 56 ways .
BUT ...
That doesn't mean you can get 56 different sets of 2 side dishes.
For each different pair, there are 2 ways to choose them . . .
(first A then B), and (first B then A). Either way, you wind up with (A and B).
So yes, there are 56 different 'WAYS' to choose 2 out of 8.
But there are only 28 different possible results, and 2 'ways'
to get each result.

Using the combination formula, it is found that she can select the shirts in 775,200 ways.
The order in which the shirt are chosen is not important, hence, the <em>combination formula</em> is used to solve this question.
Combination formula:
is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by:
In this problem:
- 3 shirts from a set of 17.
- Then, 3 shirts from a set of 20.
- They are independent, hence, to find the total, we multiply both combinations.
She can select the shirts in 775,200 ways.
