Question 592265: A bicycle lock contains four dials. Each dial has digits 0-9. How many combinations are possible?
Answer by jim_thompson5910(35256) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Hint: Number of combinations = (Number of choices for the first slot)*(Number of choices for the second slot)*(Number of choices for the third slot)*(Number of choices for the fourth slot)
So say for instance you had 8 choices for each slot, then you would have 8*8*8*8 = 4096 possible combinations. Keep in mind that this is NOT the answer as it's only an example.
