A letter lock consists of three rings each marked with 10 different letters. In how many ways it is possible to make an unsuccessful attempt to open the lock?

Answer»

Total number of ways to make an attempt to open the lock is = 10 × 10 × 10 = 1000

Number of successful attempts to open the lock = 1

Number of unsuccessful attempts to open the lock = 1000 – 1 = 999

Thus, required number of possible ways to make an unsuccessful attempt to open the lock is 999.
