Use the fundamental principle of counting or permutations to solve each problem. See Examples 1-6. License Plates For many years, the state of California used 3 letters followed by 3 digits on its automobile license plates. (a) How many different license plates are possible with this arrangement? (b) When the state ran out of new plates, the order was reversed to 3 digits followed by 3 letters. How many additional plates were then possible? (c) When the plates described in part (b) were also used up, the state then issued plates with 1 letter followed by 3 digits and then 3 letters. How many plates does this scheme provide?
