Neela has twelve different skirts, ten different tops, eight different pairs of shoes, three different necklaces and five different bracelets. In how many ways can Neela dress up? Correct Answer 14400

By the basic counting principle, the number of different ways = 12 × 10 × 8 × 3 × 5 = 14400. Note that shoes come in pairs. So she must choose one pair of shoes from ten pairs, not one shoe from twenty.
