Private cars and PUVs:
\n" ); document.write( " 3 letters —> \"+26%5E3+=+17576+\" possible arrangements
\n" ); document.write( " 4 numbers —> \"+10%5E4+=+10000+\" possible arrangements\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Total possible plates for private cars and PUVs: \"+highlight+%2827576%29+\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "——————————————
\n" ); document.write( "For motorcycle plates, follow the same logic.
