Question

The university theater uses a combination of one letter (A – Z) and two digits (0 – 9) to identify their reserved seats. How many reserved seats are possible using a combination of one letter followed by two digits?

1.) 2600

2.) 234

3.) 260

4.) 2106

Answer 1

1.) 2,600

Explanation:

Answer 2

Correct option: 1) 2600

Explanation:

The letter has a total of 26 possible values (from 'a' to 'z'), and each digit has a total of 10 possible values (from 0 to 9).

So, to find the number of reserved seats possible, we just need to multiply the number of possible values of each letter and digit.

We have one letter and two digits, so we have:

26 * 10 * 10 = 2600 possible reserved seats

Correct option: 1)
