How many Numbers puzzles are there in total?

Is there a way you can work out the amount of countdown numbers games? I know there are 24 numbers to pick from (two each of numbers 1-10 and 25, 50, 75, 100) and I think you work out the amount of numbers combinations (which is the part I don't know how to do) and then multiply by the amount of targets which is 898 I think (999-101=899 ).
Does anyone know how to work out the amount of possible numbers combinations? I know there are 24 numbers and 6 numbers in a game obviously. It wouldn't be 999,999 surely because those are just the numbers 0-9 (10 numbers) and there are six of one number each (filling all gaps). In this case, there are two of numbers 1-10 each and 25, 50, 75, 100.
Hope you all get what I mean, apologies if I haven't been clear.
