Say you have the letters A,B, and C. Here are all the possible combinations.
* ABC * ACB * BAC * BCA * CAB * CBA So, 6 if you don't repeat any of the letters. If you DO repeat letters, then simply take the number of letters you have, (3 for instance), and multiply it to the power of the number of letters you have. So, for 3 letters, the formula would be 33 . Or if you had 4 letters it would be 44 and so on.

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.
