Answer :

Answer:

768

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an example of what is sometimes called the multiplication principle.

If some process consists of choosing items in a given number of ways, the number of ways of making all the choices in sequence is found by multiplication.

8 choices of pants  x  3 choices of shirt  x  8 choices of sweater/hoodie x 4 choices of shoes.

8 x 3 x 8 x 4 = 768 ways to choose an outfit!
