Draw three letters from a bag of 26 letters replacing the letters after every draw. How many possible orderings of letters are there?

Close, see my previous post for the solution to the question: Pick 3 letters at random from a bag of 26 (all the letters of the alphabet). What are the odds you pick the letters CAT in that order.

Regards,
Jay

PS. Thanks for the Friday morning math. It makes my brain hurt!
