Algebra.Com's Answer #330743 by mathstutor494(120)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Numbers between 4000 an 5000 would start with 4 and will have 4 digits.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So the first position will be filled by 4 and the number would look like\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "4 _ _ _\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Then the remaining 3 digits will be formed from remaining 5 digit 2,3,5,6,7 in 5P3 ways (no repeatitions).\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Numbers formed = 1. 5P3 \n" ); document.write( "= 5!/(5-3)! \n" ); document.write( "= 5*4*3 \n" ); document.write( "= 60\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "In order for these numbers to be divisible by 5, the number would be \n" ); document.write( "4 - - 5\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "And the number would be formed by filling up 2nd and 3rd digit from the remaining 4 digits 2,3,6,7 in 4P2 ways i.e 4*3 = 12 \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
