Question

Racers at a 5k race are assigned an identification tag consisting of two digits (0–9) and one letter. how many different identification tags are possible?

Answer 1

Well, the numbers of two digits range from 01-99. Each number can be accompanied with any given letter in the 26-lettered alphabet. So, 99 x 26 = 2,574 possibilities, I believe. I hope this helped, and if it didn't, I'm sorry.

Answer 2

The different identification tags which are possible are:

2600

Explanation:

It is given that the tag is to be assigned such that it consists of two digits (0-9) and one letter.

Since there are a total of 10 digits and 26 alphabets.

This means that the number of different tags that could be possible are:

10×10×26=2600

( Since any one of the 10 digits could come up in two places and any one of the 26 alphabets could come up)

Hence, the answer is:

2600
