To try and relieve the boredom on a long drive home, i started to try and work out the number of variations you can have on the 3 letters in a car registration plate,  ie.. AAA, AAB, AAC  to  ZZZ (i know some letters are not included.), but i had to give up, through both tiredness and inability..  any of you boffins help me out on this one?

yes luckystrike, but, there are no I's, Q's, Z's. there are also cases when O and U are not used. the thick plottens!

if there are no i's q's and z's then there are 23 x 23 x 23 = 12, 167

 

and if there are no o's and u's then there are 21 x 21 x 21 = 9261
