    X = number of flower choices

    We have 4 times of trees and 6 kinds of shrubs and x kinds of flowers

    Overall, we'll have 4*6*x = 24*x different ways to pick three items (one per type).

    Set this expression equal to 168 and solve for x

    24*x = 168

    24*x/24 = 168/24

    x = 7

    Answer: B) 7
