Answer with Step-by-step explanation:
License plates are made using 2 letters followed by 3 digits.
We have to find how many plates can be made if repetition of letters and digits is allowed.
There are 26 letters and 10 digits.
The choices for first place is 26 (any letter)
The choices for second place is 26 (any letter)
The choices for third place is 10 (any digit)
The choices for fourth place is 10 (any digit)
The choices for fifth place is 10 (any digit)
Hence, total choices for number plate=26×26×10×10×10
= 676000
