Mackenzie can plan 12 different workouts.
To see why, we can use the multiplication principle.
First, there are 3 options for the cardio routine. For each of those options, there are 2 options for the resistance training routine. So there are a total of 3 x 2 = 6 options for the cardio and resistance training components.
Next, there are 2 options for the time of day. For each of those options, there are 6 possible combinations of cardio and resistance training. So there are a total of 2 x 6 = 12 options for the time of day and workout combination.
Finally, for each of those 12 options, there are 3 outfit choices. So overall, Mackenzie can plan 12 x 3 = 36 different workouts when considering outfit options.
