Final answer:

Deon can choose from six possible combinations of chocolates from the box: Plain and Plain, Plain and Milk, Plain and White, Milk and Milk, Milk and White, and White and White.

Step-by-step explanation:

Deon can select two chocolates from a box containing plain, milk, and white chocolates in various combinations.

To identify all possible combinations, we consider pairs that Deon can choose, taking into account that he can choose two chocolates of the same type or two different types.

  • Plain and Plain (PP)
  • Plain and Milk (PM)
  • Plain and White (PW)
  • Milk and Milk (MM)
  • Milk and White (MW)
  • White and White (WW)

These combinations are all the possible pairs of chocolates Deon can take from the box.

Each combination represents a specific pair of chocolates, regardless of order, since the question does not specify that the order of selection matters.
