The postman can post each letter in any of the 5 letter boxes. Since there are 3 letters and each can go into any of the 5 boxes independently, the total number of ways to post the letters is calculated as (5^3). Therefore, the postman can post the 3 letters in (125) different ways.

How do you algebra?

In algebra, there will be letters. Each letter represents a number. Different letters stand for different numbers. e.g. x=1 but y=3. if there are many X's, they all mean the same thing.If there is a number before the letter, you multiply the number by what the letter represents. So 3p means 3*p. This is very simple algebra. I haven't learned complex algebra yet, but i can understand it. But can't explain it well.


How long does it take for the post office to deliver a letter 1000 miles away?

That depends on a lot of things. In Canada, the post office says, "Regular letters are delivered within 2 business days within a city, in 3 business days within a province, and in 4 business days nationally (excluding the day of mailing). If you are sending letters internationally, delivery time varies by country, but we expect international letters to be delivered in 4 to 7 business days." From Kenora, Ontario to Cornwall, Ontario is 1260 miles (by road), then a letter can travel 1000 miles in 3 days. On the Other hand, Windsor, Ontario is across the river from Detroit Michigan, but Canada Post says this should take 4 to 7 business days. In practice, letters are often delivered to addresses over 1000 miles away in one day, both in Canada and the U.S.
