 The license plate system in California is AA#-##A.    Where the letters can be any letter A-Z and the numbers can be any number 1-9. How many license plate numbers are available to the average citizen to use with the following restrictions?

 

 

-They do not use the number Zero because it looks too much like the letter O.  

-​The first letter cannot be X.  X’s are reserved for rental car companies to use.

-​The first letter cannot be a T.  T’s are reserved for taxi companies to use.

- ​The last letter cannot be a G.  G’s are reserved for government vehicles.

 

 

 How many more numbers would there be if they let you use the number Zero.

AA#-##A.

 

24 x 26 x 9 x 9 x 9 x 25=11,372,400 Number of plates under the restrictions.

24 x 26 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 25 =15,600,000 Number of plates if zeros allowed.
