    60

    Step-by-step explanation:

    If each letter can be used only once then

    - The first slot has a total of 5 options

    - The 2nd slot has a total of 4 options

    - The 4rd slot has a total of 3 options

    Then the total number of combination to arrange 5 letters into 3 slots is

    5 * 4 * 3 = 60
