How many 6-letter words can be formed using the letters A,B and C so that each letter appears at least once in the word.
Number of ways 6 letter words can be formed using letters A,B,C so that each letter appears at least once in the word = Number of ways 6 letter word formed using A,B,C - Number of ways 6 letter word formed using any two of A,B,C + Number of 6 letter words formed by using A,B,C. [ using inclusion exclusion principle. ]
