\n" ); document.write( "Answer: D) 36\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Reason:
\n" ); document.write( "Imagine a table with 4 rows and 9 columns.
\n" ); document.write( "The 4 rows represent the number of pants.
\n" ); document.write( "The 9 columns represent the number of shirts
\n" ); document.write( "Each row/column combo is a different pants+shirt outfit.
\n" ); document.write( "The 4 by 9 table has 4*9 = 36 items total.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The table itself is optional, and can be done as a thought experiment. The only steps you need to show really is 4*9 = 36.
