Addition and Multiplication Principles of Counting
... To find the number of codes, find the sum of the numbers of possibilities for 1-letter codes, 2-letter codes and 3letter codes. 1-letter: 26 choices for each letter and 10 choices for each digit. So 26•10•10 = 2600 letter-digit-digit possibilities. The letter can be in any of the three positions , s ...

... Example 2: Roll a die: {1,2,3,4,5,6} A = “the die lands odd” = {1, 3, 5} B = “the die lands even” = {2, 4, 6} C = “the die lands on a prime number” = {2, 3, 5} D = “the die lands 2 or 4” = {2,4} We say that the event “happens” if the outcome which occurs is in its set. For instance, the die lands od ...
