a. 11,232,000
b. 24,336,000
c. 15,912,000
d. 16,848,000

Answer:

d. 16,848,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

First 3 characters  is the number of permutations of 3 numbers from 10

= 10P3 =   10! / (10-3)! = 720 possible ways.

The next 2 characters  are letters so the possible permutations  are  26P2

= 26! / (26-2)! = 650 ways.

The last  character can be any one of 10 + 26 = 36 characters.

So the answer is 720*650*36

= 16,848,000.
