So, N = digits from 0 to 9 L = alphabets from A to Z

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

How many choices are there for N ? How many choices are there for L ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So N=10 counting 0 L=26

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

`NN LLL NNN`

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

You can choose the first N in 10 ways you can choose the second N in 10 ways You can choose the first L in 26 ways You can choose the second L in 26 ways ....

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

So total possible car plates = 10*10*26*26*26*10*10*10 = 10^2*26^3*10^3 simplify

OpenStudy (anonymous):

18,676

So that's the final answer, @ganeshie8?
