Answer 2

Answer:

The smallest 4-digit number will be (d) 1358​

Explanation:

• The given digits are 1, 8, 5, and 3.
• Since we have to make the smallest 4-digit number, the first digit should be the smallest among the given 4 digits.
• Hence, the number will start from 1.
• Now, the second digit must be the smallest of the remaining three numbers, i.e., 8, 5, and 3,
• Therefore, the second digit will be 3.
• The third digit must be the smallest of the remaining two numbers, i.e., 5 and 8.
• So, the third digit will be 5 and the fourth digit will be 8.
• The smallest possible number will be obtained when the given digits are arranged in ascending order.
• The digits in ascending order are 1358.

Therefore, the smallest possible 4-digit number from the given digits is 1358.
