how many 3 digit numbers can be formed from the digits 2 3 5 8 9 without repetition which are exactly divisible by 4
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
don't know the answer sorry
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
How many 3-digit numbers can be formed from the digits 2, 3, 5, 8 and 9, without repetition, which are exactly divisible by 4?
To find:No of ways to arrange so that numbers are exactly divisible by 4
Solution:
From the given numbers 2,3,5,8 and 9
2 and 8 can occupy last (unit digits)
Reason: A number is divisible by 4 only if it's last two digits are divisible by 4.
Case 1: Fix 2 at unit place.
Now we have four numbers out of which we have to choose 2 digits for tenth and hundredth place
n= 4(3,5,8,9)
r= 2(only 2 place vacant)
No. of methods:
Out of which the numbers which have 8 at tenth place are not divisible by 4
(382,582,982)= 3 numbers should remove from 12 ways
Total ways to arrange = 12-3= 9 ways
Case2: Fix 8 at unit place.
Now we have four numbers out of which we have to choose 2 for tenth place
because 38,58,98 are not divisible by 4
n= 3(3,5,9)
r= 1(only 1 place vacant)
No. of methods:
Total possible ways:
No. of ways from case1+ No. of ways from case2
=9+3
= 12
Total 3 digits numbers formed from given 5 digits are 12 numbers, which are divisible by 4.
Hope it helps you.
