Asked by Jack
Hannah’s favorite toy character is sold wearing one of many outfits. An outfit consists of one shirt, one pair of pants, and one cap. The shirt can be striped, plain, or polka-dotted. The pants may be denim or plaid. The cap may be a cowboy hat or a baseball cap. If Hannah picks a toy at random from the shelf and there are an equal number of toys wearing each outfit, what is the probability that the toy is dressed in a polka-dotted shirt and a cowboy hat?

3 kind of shirts
2 kind of pants
2 kind of caps
number of possible outfits = 3*2*2 = 12
you have a choice of pants only, so there are 2 of those
so prob(of your event) = 2/12 = 1/6
