Given an alphabet of 26 letters, with 21 consonants and 5 vowels. How many three letter words can be formed with a consonant as the first letter and a vowel as the last letter ? (A) 3180 (B) 2730 (C) 2190 (D) 2190

• If we assume the word like this: (1) (2) (3)
  • Number of possibilities for the first place (1) = 21
  • Number of possibilities for the second place (2) = 26
  • Number of possibilities for the third place (3) = 5
  
  Therefore, total possible cases = 21* 26* 5 = 2730
