Dave has no fashion sense, and will wear any combination of garments regardless of whether someone thinks they “match.” Every day Dave chooses an outfit consisting of one of each of the following garments: jacket, tie, shirt, pants, boxers, right sock, left sock, right shoe, left shoe. If Dave has more than one of each of the listed garments, and can make 63,000 different outfits, then for how many garments does Dave have exactly five choices?
------------------------------------------------------------------
A 0
B 1
C 2
D 3
E 4
I wish to understand the logic behind correct choice -D as shown below?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dave’s garment choices are independent, so the number of each type of garment will be multiplied together to get 63,000. . Nine prime factors and nine types of garments, so there must be three garments of which Dave has exactly five choices.
