A bank asked its customers to create a personal six-digit password, formed only by digits from 0 to 9, for access to their checking account via the internet.
However, an expert in electronic security systems recommended to the bank's management to re-register its users, requesting, for each one of them, the creation of a new six-digit password, now allowing the use of the 26 letters of the alphabet, in addition to digits from 0 to 9. In this new system, each uppercase letter was considered distinct from its lowercase version. Furthermore, the use of other types of characters was prohibited.
One way to evaluate a change in the password system is to verify the improvement coefficient, which is the ratio of the new number of password possibilities to the old one.
The improvement coefficient of the recommended change is
(A) $\frac{62^{6}}{10^{6}}$ (B) $\frac{62!}{10!}$ (C) $\frac{62! \cdot 4!}{10! \cdot 56!}$ (D) $62! - 10!$ (E) $62^{6} - 10^{6}$

A company will build its page on the internet and expects to attract an audience of approximately one million customers. To access this page, a password with a format to be defined by the company will be required. There are five format options offered by the programmer, described in the table, where ``L'' and ``D'' represent, respectively, uppercase letter and digit.
OptionFormat
ILDDDDD
IIDDDDDD
IIILLDDDD
IVDDDDD
VLLLDD

The letters of the alphabet, among the 26 possible ones, as well as the digits, among the 10 possible ones, can be repeated in any of the options.
The company wants to choose a format option whose number of possible distinct passwords is greater than the expected number of customers, but such that this number is not greater than twice the expected number of customers.
The option that best suits the company's conditions is
(A) I.
(B) II.
(C) III.
(D) IV.

The format for car license plates in a small country is two digits followed by three vowels, e.g. 04 IOU. A license plate is called ``confusing'' if the digit 0 (zero) and the vowel O are both present on it. For example $04\,IOU$ is confusing but $20\,AEI$ is not. (i) How many distinct number plates are possible in all? (ii) How many of these are not confusing?
