Given that,

A class teacher wants to assign 2 questions from two exercises.

The first exercise has 20 questions. So, there are 20 possible ways to choose a question.

The second exercise has 15 questions. So, there are 15 possible ways to choose a question.

Thus, using the fundamental counting principle the 2 questions can be answered in   \mathrm{20\times 15=300\ ways.}
