To find the total number of pairs of shoes ordered, we need to calculate the number of pairs of sneakers and sandals separately, then add them together.

  1. Calculate the pairs of sneakers:

    • Number of cases of sneakers = 12
    • Pairs of sneakers per case = 50
    • Total pairs of sneakers = 12 cases × 50 pairs/case = 600 pairs
  2. Calculate the pairs of sandals:

    • Number of cases of sandals = 12
    • Pairs of sandals per case = 35
    • Total pairs of sandals = 12 cases × 35 pairs/case = 420 pairs
  3. Total pairs of shoes:

    • Total pairs = Total pairs of sneakers + Total pairs of sandals
    • Total pairs = 600 pairs + 420 pairs = 1,020 pairs

Therefore, the shoe store ordered a total of 1,020 pairs of shoes.
