Question 9 • CR - Algebra 2 26-27 - S2

Dorianna packed enough blouses, skirts, and belts in her suitcase to make 24 different outfits. If she packed 4 skirts and 2 belts, how many blouses did she pack?

Answer
A
3
B
4
C
16
D
18

Explanation

Each outfit uses one blouse, one skirt, and one belt, so the number of outfits is the product of the quantities packed. With 4 skirts and 2 belts, each blouse can be paired in 4 × 2 = 8 ways. Since 24 ÷ 8 = 3, Dorianna packed 3 blouses, choice A.
