If you are a whiz with word problems, please help my daughter with this one: Make an organized list: Luke is going away for the weekend. He packed four shirts, three pairs of jeans, two pairs of shoes, and three pairs of socks. How many different outfits can Luke wear while he is gone?

TIA

Thank you soooo much. My husband worked on this with her and they did get 72 as the answer. I just wanted to double check because he helped her the other day and got some answers wrong. LOL Did you just multiply each of the numbers and got 72? That's what I think you did. Again, thank you!

4*3*2*3=72

None... Luke is a male, and packed for himself... Nothing matches, and the shoes are NASTY.
Plus: he did not pack underwear!!!!

LMAO that is what I was thinking. Let me add I don't know any males that have "outfits" lol. DH wants to know if the male was naked. That would throw more clothes into equation. DH thinks to much lol.

Well I did it with the 4 x 3 x 2 x 3=72 but then just to be sure, I actually wrote it all out...if she gets that wrong, let me know and I'll send that dang teacher the paper lol
