Answer:

Since the order of choice matters, we will permute the values.                       a bit more explanation for this:

If the order of choice did NOT matter, ABC and BCA will be counted as one since order of choice does NOT matter

Since order of choice does matter, ABC , BCA and CAB are all different possibilities for the arrangement of the same 3 letters

Since we have 3 slots:

___  ___ ___

Now, for the first slot. You can out either one if the 4 alphabets in the first slot since no slot has been used as of now

So:

_<u>4</u>_ ___ ___

**Keep in mind that the 4 is the possible number of values this slot can have**

Now that one slot has been used, one of the 4 alphabets has been used and since we are not allowed to repeat the same alphabets, we are left with  3 more alphabets

we can put any one of the 3 alphabets in this second slot, Hence:

_<u>4</u>_ <u>_3_</u> ___

Now that 2 of the 4 alphabets have been used, we are left with only 2 alphabets, so there are only 2 possible alphabets for slot 3

Therefore:

_<u>4</u>_ _<u>3</u>_ _<u>2</u>_

Now that we know the possible alphabets for all 3 slots, we will multiply them with each other to get the total possible number of 3 - alphabet words we can make with 4 alphabets

Total possible words = 4 * 3 * 2

Total possible words = 24

We could've used the formula for Permutation as well

alexdok [17]
Radius = <span> <span> <span> 23.125 </span> </span> </span> cm
Cylinder Volume =  <span>π <span>• r² • height
</span></span>
Cylinder Volume =  3.14 * 23.125^2 * 18.5

Cylinder Volume =  <span> <span> <span> 31,064.53515625 </span> </span> </span>

Cylinder Volume =  <span> <span> <span> 31,064.54 cubic centimeters
