\huge\text{Hey there!}


\large\text{He has 26 letters all together (A - Z)}


\large\text{25 if he starts from his second letter (B - Z)}


\large\text{24 if he starts from his third letter (C - Z)}


\large\text{ 23 if he starts from his fourth letter (D - Z)}


\mathsf{26*25*24*23}


\mathsf{26* 25 = \bf 650}


\mathsf{650*24*23}


\mathsf{650*24 = \bf 15,600}


\mathsf{15,600* 23}


\mathsf{ =\bf 358,800}


\boxed{\boxed{\large\text{Answer: \huge \bf 358,800}}}\huge\checkmark
