This is the concept of volumes of solid figures;
volume=length*width*height
the dimensions of our figure is:
length=15 1/2 in=31/2 in
width=10 1/4 in=41/4 in
height= 12 in
thus the volume will be:
volume=(31/2*41/4*12)
volume=1906 1/2 in^3
the answer is 1906 1/2 in^3
Get n to one side
-1/5=-2/5n
divide both sides by -2/5
n=1/2

Answer: 1/24
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Work Shown:
A = selects green pair of shorts
B = selects gray t-shirt
P(A) = probability of selecting green shorts
P(A) = (number of green shorts)/(number of shorts total)
P(A) = 1/6
P(B) = probability of selecting gray t-shirt
P(B) = (number of gray t-shirts)/(number of t-shirts total)
P(B) = 1/4
P(A and B) = probability of selecting green shorts AND gray t-shirt
P(A and B) = P(A)*P(B) ... since A and B are independent events
P(A and B) = (1/6)*(1/4)
P(A and B) = (1*1)/(6*4)
P(A and B) = 1/24
Note: The fraction 1/24 is approximately equal to 0.041667
