Answer:


(1)/(24)

Explanation:

1. The student is allowed to choose white, blue, green or black Polo shirts. So the student has 4 possibilities to select shirt and the probability of wearing the blue shirt is
(1)/(4).

2. The student is allowed to choose khaki, black or plaid skirts/pants. So the student has 3 possibilities to select skirt and the probability of wearing the plaid skirt is
(1)/(3).

3. The student is allowed to choose black or brown shoes. So the student has 2 possibilities to select shoes and the probability of wearing black shoes is
(1)/(2).

Now use the product rule for probabilities:


Pr=(1)/(4)\cdot (1)/(3)\cdot (1)/(2)=(1)/(24).
