Question 1058256: The digits 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 are randomly arranged to form a three-digit number. (Digits are not repeated.) Find the probability that the number is even and greater than 700.

Since the number must be greater than 700, there is only one choice for the first digit: 7
Since the number must be even, there are only 3 choices for the last digit: 2, 4, 6
And since there are no repeated digits, there are only 4 choices for the middle digit (cannot be 7, or the same as the last digit).
The total number of possible arrangements is then 1 * 4 * 3 = 12
The possibilities are:
724
726
732
734
736
742
746
752
754
756
762
764
