One way to work this out is to imagine that you have a bag containing all 26 letters of the alphabet.
Take one letter from the bag. It could be any one of the 26, so there are 26 possibilities for your first letter.
Take another letter from the bag. This time there are only 25 letters in the bag (you've already taken one out, remember!). So you have 25 possibilities for the second letter.
So far there are 26 x 25 (= 650) possibilities for your first two letters. (AB, BA, AC, CA, AD, DA, etc)
Now take your third letter from the bag. But remember, there are now only 24 letters remaining.
So, for 'from 26 chose 3', altogether you have 26 x 25 x 24 possibilities, which comes to 15,600 different combinations of three different letters.

How could you find the number of different combinations of six letters in a computer password?
When trying to work out how many different combinations there are, you need to know how many options there are for each value. If the password only contains lower case letters, then we have 26 options for each value. For each letter in the password, there are 26 options, so the total number of possible options is 26x26x26x26x26x26 or 266 This equals 308,915,776 so there are 308,915,776 possible different combinations of six letters.
