How many numbers of three different digits less than 500 can
be formed from the integers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 ? HSEB 2063
Answers
Answer:
80
Step-by-step explanation.
The given numbers are 1,2,3,4,5,6
Now,
Hundred place can be formed in 4 ways where it should be <5
Tens place can be formed in 5 ways
And unit place can be formed in 4 ways
So, The total number of arrangement is = (4*5*4) ways
The total number of arrangement is =80 ways.
80 numbers of 3 different digits less than 500 can be formed
from the integers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 , 6
Given:
- Digits 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6
- Numbers of 3 different digits less than 500 to be formed
To Find:
- How many numbers can be formed
Solution:
There are 6 digits to select from. (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 )
Number of 3 digits to be formed
Number to be less than 500
As numbers are less than 5 hence hundreds digit can not be 5 or 6
so number of ways to select hundred digit = 4 (1 ,2 ,3 , 4)
All 3 Digit are different , one digit out of 6 already used
Hence number of ways to select tens digit = 5
Now 4 digits left
Hence number of ways to select unit digit = 4
Total Numbers can be formed = 4 × 5 × 4 = 80
80 numbers of 3 different digits less than 500 can be formed
from the integers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 , 6
