\n" ); document.write( "4-digit code with 0-9 as possible digits. How many codes are there that
\n" ); document.write( "contain the digit \"0\" exactly twice?
\n" ); document.write( "I found that (10^4) - (9^4) = 3439 which is the number of codes with \"0\" at least once. Any help on how I would go about solving two instances of \"0\" would be awesome.

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
the codes will look like one of these:
\n" ); document.write( "00xx
\n" ); document.write( "xx00
\n" ); document.write( "0x0x
\n" ); document.write( "x0x0
\n" ); document.write( "x00x
\n" ); document.write( "0xx0
\n" ); document.write( "where the x's can't be 0, but
\n" ); document.write( "they can be 1-9
\n" ); document.write( "-------------
\n" ); document.write( "So there are \"+9%5E2+=+81+\" possible
\n" ); document.write( "codes for each of these 6 choices
\n" ); document.write( "there are 6*81 = 486 possible
\n" ); document.write( "codes altogether
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
