There are 26 ways to select the first letter. For each of those ways, since repetition is allowed, there are 26 ways to select the second letter, for a total of 26 times 26 ways to select the letters. For each of those 26 times 26 ways to pick the letters there are 10 ways to select the first digit (0 through 9 is 10 possibilities). Then 10 ways to select the second digit and 10 ways to select the last digit.
Do your own arithmetic.
