Solution

The boy owns 2 pairs of pants, 6 shirts, 8 ties, and 2 jackets.

To know how many different outfits can he wear to school if he must wear one of each item​

We can use combination to solve this


\begin{gathered} ^{2_{}}C_{1\text{ }}*^{}^{6_{}}C_{1*\text{ }}^{8_{}}C_{1\text{ }}*^{2_{}}C_{1\text{ }} \\ =2*6*8*2 \\ =192 \end{gathered}

The Final is 192
