The data is internally stored as bits (ones and zeroes). To interact with humans, the keyboard uses letters; but as soon as you press a key, a series of electrical circuits are activated, and this is represented by zeroes and ones (for example, zero when no current flows, and one when a current flows - or the other way round, depending on the convention used).

How many possible combinations could be constructed using 3 letters and 3 numbers for a license plate?

To calculate the total number of possible combinations for a license plate using 3 letters and 3 numbers, we need to multiply the number of options for each character position. For letters, there are 26 options (A-Z), and for numbers, there are 10 options (0-9). Therefore, the total number of combinations can be calculated as 26 (letters) * 26 (letters) * 26 (letters) * 10 (numbers) * 10 (numbers) * 10 (numbers) = 17,576,000 possible combinations.
