Well, there are 9 digits from 1-9, not 10, that would include the 0
I will also assume that letters and numbers may be repeated.
case1 , 2 letters followed by a number
number of ways = 26x26x9 = 6048
case 2, 1 letter followed by 2 numbers
number of ways = 26x9x9 = 2106
total = 8154
of no digits or letters may be repeated, the number of ways would be
26x25x9 + 9x8x26
= ....
To use a certain cash machine, you ned a persona identification code. If each code consists of two letters followed by one of the digits from 1-9(such as AQ7 or BB3) or one letter followed by two difits (such as Q3 or J88), how many different codes can be assigned?
I think there are 9 numbers but my teacher said I have to use 10?
