If we are looking for the number of two-digit numbers using the digits
3, 4, 5, and 6 when repetition of digits is not allowed, we can multiply
the total number of digits (which is the total number of choices for the
tens digit) to the total number of digits minus 1 (which is the total
number of choices for the ones digit). Therefore, there are two-digit
numbers that can be formed.
