Hi
alphabet: 26 letters:
choose 2
a) possible to choose the same letter twice(replacing the 1st before drawing the second, for ex)
 the sample space S1 = (26)(26) = 676

b) not possible to choose the same letter twice(no replacement , for ex)
 the sample space S2 = 26C2 = 325

Wish You the Best in your Studies.
