Answer:

11232000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that an identification code is to consist of 2 letters followed by 3 digits.

Also given that repetition is not permitted.

Since order matters here we find that permutation to be used.

Out of 26 letters, 2 letters can be selected without repitition in $26P2$ ways

And 3 codes can be selected from 10 digits in $10P3$ ways

Hence total number of codes = $10P3(26P2)\\\\=10(9)(8) (26)(25)(24)\\=720(100)(156)\\=11232000$

No of ways = 11232000
