A license plate has (2) letters and (2) digits. There are (4) letter choices and (5) digit choices and repetition is allowed. How many plates can be formed?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: (400) plates

This uses the fundamental principle of counting, because a plate is formed by making four independent position-wise choices. The first letter has 4 choices and, since repetition is allowed, the second letter also has 4 choices. Similarly, the first digit has 5 choices and the second digit also has 5 choices. Thus the total number of plates is 4 × 4 × 5 × 5 = 16 × 25 = 400. Hence option C is correct. Repetition being allowed is important: it means that choosing a letter or digit does not reduce the choices at the next position. Option A, B and D result from incomplete or incorrect multiplication and do not represent all four positions.
