total number of words of 5 letter from 10 different letter such that any letter can be repeated any number of time = 105

 

total number of words of 5 letter from 10 different letter such that no letter can be repeated  = 10 *9*8*7*6

 

 

 

now for atleast one letter is repeated = 105 - 10 *9*8*7*6
