Answer:
There are two cases to the answer.
CASE 1: ALL DIGITS ARE EVEN
Even + Even + Even = EVEN
Now, the hundred’s digit can be selected in 4 ways (2 or 4 or 6 or 8). But the ten’s and unit’s place digits can be selected in 5 ways each (0 or 2 or 4 or 6 or 8).
So, TOTAL NUMBERS =4×5×5=100
CASE 2: TWO DIGITS ARE ODD AND ONE DIGIT IS EVEN
Odd + Odd + Even = EVEN
We can select the odd digit in 5 ways. If the even digit comes at the hundred’s place, then we will have 4×5×5=100 numbers
If an odd digit occurs at hundred’s place, then we will have 5×5×5=125 numbers. But again, the arrangement may be Odd-Odd-Even or Odd-Even-Odd. So, 125×2=250 numbers.
So, TOTAL NUMBERS =100+250=350
Thus, the total number of 3-digit numbers sum of whose digits is even = 100+350=450 (Answer)
