Juan Bass · Answer 1

26 possible letters

assuming you can repeat them

26*26*26

no listed

ok, lets assume that you can't repeat them

that is 26 times 25 times 24 (because you used 1 each time)

that is 26!/23! (because 26*25*24*23!=26!)

answer is D (only if there is a factorial sign after the 23)
