How many combos are there?
A lock numbered 0-36 has a combination consisting of 3 different numbers. What are the total number of possible combos?
3 DIFFERENT numbers, doesn't that mean it can't be repeated everyone??/

37*36*36= 47952 possible.
Most locks don't reuse the same numbers in sequence, but can have the same first and last number.

Assuming that the number used can be repeated, then it would be 36*36*36 or 36^3
BECAUSE
If you have 3 numbers, and 2 numbers to choose, you would have
1. 1,1
2. 1,2
3. 1,3
4. 2,1
5. 2,2
6. 2,3
7. 3,1
8. 3,2
9. 3,3
or 3^2
repeat this with 36^3
