Question

A particular brand of shirt comes in 12 colors, has a male version and a female version, and comes in 4 sizes for each sex. How many different types of this shirt are made?

Answer 1

96 shirts

Step-by-step explanation:

The shirts come in 12 colours and have a female and male version (which makes 2 varieties)

therefore, the number of different shirts at this point are

`12shirts*2versions=24\text{ shirts}`

Furthermore, the shirt has 4 sizes for each sex; therefore,

`24\text{shirts}*4sizes=96shirts`

Hence, a total of 96 different types of shirt are made.
