An identification code is to consist of six letters followed by three digits. How many different codes are possible if repetition is permitted
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Solution
Number of possible combinations = 26^6 * 10^3
= 308,915,776,000
Three hundred eight billion nine hundred fifteen million seven hundred seventy six thousand
26 represents the number of letters in the alphabet
You multiply 26 six times since repetition is allowed.
10 represents the number of digits from 0 to 9
You multiply 10 3 times since repetition is allowed.
You multiply both product to get the number of possible combinations.
