Question 453662: How many different four-digit numbers can be made using only the digits 1, 2, and 3? (assume a digit may be repeated) Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source):
There are 3 ways to pick the first number. For each of those ways, there are 3 ways to pick the second number. For each of those 3 times 3 equals 9 ways to pick the first two numbers, there are 3 ways to pick the 3rd number...and so on.
