All Social Security Numbers are 9 digits. Since each digit has ten possibilities [1,2,3..9.0], the number of combinations using all 10 number possibilities is -
10 X 10 X 10 X 10 X 10 X 10 X 10 X 10 X 10 = 1,000,000,000.
If be restrict the first 2 digits to 1 through 9 then its
9 X 9 X 10 X 10 X 10 X 10 X 10 X 10 X 10 = 810,000,000
Assuming that the first digit of the 4 digit number cannot be 0, then there are 9 possible digits for the first of the four. Also assuming that each digit does not need to be unique, then the next three digits of the four can have 10 possible for each. That results in 9x10x10x10 = 9000 possible 4 digit numbers. If, however, you can not use the same number twice in completing the 4 digit number, and the first digit cannot be 0, then the result is 9x9x8x7 = 4536 possible 4 digit numbers. If the 4 digit number can start with 0, then there are 10,000 possible 4 digit numbers. If the 4 digit number can start with 0, and you cannot use any number twice, then the result is 10x9x8x7 = 5040 possilbe 4 digit numbers.
If the digits may be repeated, and if the number may begin with a zero, then it's just all ofthe counting numbers up to 999,999,999.If it can't begin with a zero, then you have to throw away the first 99,999,999 and there canonly be 900,000,000.
It is possible to create a 3-digit number, without repeated digits so the probability is 1.
Assuming that 2356 is a different number to 2365, then: 1st digit can be one of four digits (2356) For each of these 4 first digits, there are 3 of those digits, plus the zero, meaning 4 possible digits for the 2nd digit For each of those first two digits, there is a choice of 3 digits for the 3rd digit For each of those first 3 digits, there is a choice of 2 digits for the 4tj digit. Thus there are 4 x 4 x 3 x 2 = 96 different possible 4 digit numbers that do not stat with 0 FM the digits 02356.
If digits can be reused, then 5x5x5x5x5 = 3125. If digits cannot be reused, then 5x4x3x2x1 = 120.
9x8x7x6x5x4x3x2x1 or 9! which equals 362880 possible combinations if no digits are repeated
Interesting.Social Security numbers all have the form: (3 digits) - (2 digits) - (4 digits).That's 9 digits altogether. If you ignore the dashes, you get: xxx,xxx,xxx .With 9 places, there are 1 billion possible different numbers.
No. Social Security numbers have nine digits.
Assuming that the first digit of the 4 digit number cannot be 0, then there are 9 possible digits for the first of the four. Also assuming that each digit does not need to be unique, then the next three digits of the four can have 10 possible for each. That results in 9x10x10x10 = 9000 possible 4 digit numbers. If, however, you can not use the same number twice in completing the 4 digit number, and the first digit cannot be 0, then the result is 9x9x8x7 = 4536 possible 4 digit numbers. If the 4 digit number can start with 0, then there are 10,000 possible 4 digit numbers. If the 4 digit number can start with 0, and you cannot use any number twice, then the result is 10x9x8x7 = 5040 possilbe 4 digit numbers.
On the back of your card there should be a strip with numbers on it. The security code is the last three digits. :)
1 set
It is 120 if the digits cannot be repeated.
The security question - is something only the legitimate user should know the answer to ! The safest password to use should be at least 10 digits (letters and/or numbers) long. There are 3,656,158,440,062,976 possible combinations for a 10-digit password using letters and/or numbers !
Assuming you mean permutations of three digits, then the set of numbers that can be made with these digits is: 345 354 435 453 534 543 There are six possible permutations of three numbers.
This cannot be answered. This will have to be written to where it can be understood.
6*5*4*3*2*1=720 possible numbers
16 digits in a credit card number and 3 for the security code on the back of the card.
