type 1 peanut butter can go with all three types of jelly = 3 pb&js where ther is one constant peanutbutter and 3 different jellys

type 2 peanut butter can go with all three jellies = 3 pb&js where there is one constant peanutbutter and 3 different jellies

3+3=6

there are 6 peanut butter and jelly sandwhiches he could make.

you can also just multiply the numbers (2x3=6)
