Probability he picks the green tie: 1/55

Probability he picks the gray shirt: 1/66

Probability e opcks the black pants:1/44

The probability that he's going to wear the green tie AND the gray shirt AND the black pants:


\begin{gathered} P=(1)/(55)*(1)/(44)*(1)/(66) \\ P=(1)/(159720) \\ P=0.00000626 \end{gathered}
