Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the trousers be represented by a and b and, the shirts be represented by x, y and z.

Possible pairs = ax, ay, az, bx, by and bz.

These were the 6 possible outcomes.

Short cut:

Possible outcomes = No. of trousers * No. of shirts = 2 * 3 = 6.

Hope it helps.


dessuabewa: tanks,but didn't we make the trousers four because they are two different pairs.
tejasgupta: But how can you wear half a trouser?
dessuabewa: so logical thinking is necessary
tejasgupta: Yes.
