36! / 8!(36-8)! =

36! / 8!28! =

36x35x34x33x32x31x30x29x28 / 8x7x6x5x4x3x2x1

Cancel down as appropriate

6x17x11x31x30x29x28 = 847289520 possibilities

That is

847,289,520.

In words,

Eight hundred and forty seven million,two hundred and eighty nine thousand,five hundred and twenty.

That's 36 different symbols (if you don't distinguish uppercase and lowercase letters); for a password length of 8, that gives you a total of 368 different combinations, for a password length of 9, the total is 369 different combinations. If you do distinguish uppercase and lowercase, then you have 26 + 26 + 10 = 62 different symbols, so, for example, with 8 characters (password length of 8), you have 628 different combinations.

If you are making passwords and they start with 2 letters from the alphabet and end with 3 digits from numbers 0 through 9 how many possibilities are there?

676,000 possibilities. For case-sensitive passwords, it's 2,704,000 possibilities. Passwords consist of 2 letters and 3 digits. That's 5 places. The first and second places can each hold 1 of 26 possibilities (26 letters), and positions 3, 4, and 5 can each hold 1 of 10 possibilities. The answer is 26 x 26 x 10 x 10 x 10 = 676000. Maybe the passwords can be case-sensitive (i.e. an upper case letter is different from a lower-case letter), then there will be 52 possibilities for each letter - in each of the 1st and 2nd places. This gives the total as 52 * 52 * 10 * 10 * 10 = 2,704,000. Note: An assumption we made is that the passwords are only 5 characters, consisting of 2 letters and 3 digits only. The question didn't say that no other characters are between these letters and numbers. If there are, then we don't have enough info to answer the question.

How many license plate combinations from 3 digits followed by 3 letters?

There are 26 different letters that can be chosen for each letter. There are 10 different numbers that can be chosen for each number. Since each of the numbers/digits that can be chosen for each of the six "spots" are independent events, we can multiply these combinations using the multiplicative rule of probability.combinations = (# of different digits) * (# of different digits) * (# of different digits) * (# of different letters) * (# of different letters) * (# of different letters) = 10 * 10 * 10 * 26 * 26 * 26 = 103 * 263 = 1000 * 17576 = 17,576,000 different combinations.


What is a complex password?

A complex password - is one of at least 10 digits - comprising a random set of letters and numbers. For example instead of using 'python1962' (a simple password), you could use p1y9th6o2n. Complex passwords are much more difficult (a) to remember and (b) to crack.
