2. How many numbers in the range 1000
Explanation / Answer
1. a) 3*4*3*2 = 72
b)4C2 * 3*2= 36
c)5
d)72*5*2= 720
2) There are total 9000 numbers in that interval
a)9 numbers have same digits repeated 4 times e.g. 1111,2222,3333... ,9999
so 9000-9=8991
b)1000 numbers (7000-7999)
c)begins with a 7 so thousands place is fixed.
Hundeds place has 9 options(7 is already taken)
Tens place has 8 option and unit place has 7 options
so 9*8*7 = 504
d)If it has 4 at thousands place
then from rest 3 places 2 have to be 4 and trhe other one any other digit from remaining 9 digits.
So 3C2*9 =27
If it doesn't have a 4 in thousand place then it start with 1 or 2 or 3 or 5 or 6.. or 9 .. so 8 options
so 27+8 = 35
3)
a)26^5 = 11881376
b)52^5 = 380204032
c)52^4 * 10 =73116160
d)5C1*10 * 52^4 =365580800
