6 Combinations.
To find the number of combinations possible on a three-digit combination lock, we need to consider that each digit can be any number from 0 to 9. Since there are 10 possible options for each digit, we multiply those options together to find the total number of combinations.
In this case, since there are three digits, we multiply 10 by itself three times (10 * 10 * 10) to get the total number of combinations. This simplifies to 1,000.
So, there can be 1,000 different combinations on a three-digit combination lock.
