in the end i have 3+3 options;  or simply 2*3 options;  all your doing is multiplying all the option values together

okay 
 you do 11*11*724
I was a little confused because I thought it was a trick question when they said that the blouses and pants were on the left side and they asked how many leaves would be on the right side.
would this just disregard all of the number on the left which would be 87604 and just leave with with your starting number 11 because it is talking about the right side or is it just the same all around? 
I am sorry for the misunderstanding

yeah, the order that they presented was just for added wordage :)

if we could have distinguished between say red pants and blue pants then we would have had something more meaningful to work out ... but as is it was just the total number of options :/
