If repeats are allowed, the number increases to 715 combinations - I'll leave it as an exercise for the reader to list the extra 505 combinations.
66
In other words, how many 4 digit combination locks are there using the digits 0-9 on each wheel. There are 10×10×10×10 = 10⁴ = 10,000 such combinations.
5,040
There are 10,000 possible combinations, if each number can be used more than once.
There are 9C3 = 84 combinations.
Exactly 3,628,800, or 10!.
66
10!/3! = 604800 different combinations.
There is only one combination since the order of the numbers in a combination does not matter.
If there are no restrictions on duplicated numbers or other patterns of numbers then there are 10 ways of selecting the first digit and also 10 ways of selecting the second digit. The number of combinations is therefore 10 x 10 = 100.
9
1,000. The list looks just like the counting numbers from 000 to 999 .
That's exactly all the numbers you need to count from 000,000,000 to 999,999,999.There are one billion of them.
There are a huge number of combinations of 5 numbers when using the numbers 0 through 10. There are 10 to the 5th power combinations of these numbers.
Assuming that repeated numbers are allowed, the number of possible combinations is given by 40 * 40 * 40 = 64000.If repeated numbers are not allowed, the number of possible combinations is given by 40 * 39 * 38 = 59280.
In other words, how many 4 digit combination locks are there using the digits 0-9 on each wheel. There are 10×10×10×10 = 10⁴ = 10,000 such combinations.
There are ten combinations: one each where one of the ten digits, 0-9, is excluded.
