You can put this solution on YOUR website! Given,
A men's department store sells 3 different suit jackets, 6 different shirts, 8 different ties, and 4 different pairs of pants.
Out of 3 different suit jackets one jacket can be selected in 3 ways.
Out of 6 different shirts one shirt can be selected in 6 ways.
Out of 8 different ties one tie can be selected in 8 ways.
Out of 4 different pairs of pants one can be selected in 4 ways.
Total number of ways of selection = 3*6*8*4 = 576
