Answer:

[tex]\frac{3}{10}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

In probability, "AND" means "multiplication" and

"OR" means "addition".

We want the probability that she picks FAVORITE SHIRT "AND" FAVORITE PANT.

Probability that she picks favorite shirt = 3/5

Probability that she picks favorite pants = 2/4 = 1/2

Since, "AND", we "multiply" both to get:

3/5 * 1/2 = 3/10
