Answer:

A committee of one boy and one girl can be chosen in 252 different ways.

Explanation:

Given that a class contains 18 girls and 14 boys, and for all parts of this question, each boy and girl are distinguishable from one another, to determine in how many ways can a committee of one boy and one girl be chosen, the following calculation has to be done:

18 x 14 = X

252 = X

Therefore, a committee of one boy and one girl can be chosen in 252 different ways.
