There are 5! = 120 different five-digit numbers that can be formed from the numbers 2, 3, 5, 7, 8.
\n" ); document.write( "Note that in each place (in the ten-thousands place, for example), a digit appears exactly 4!=24 times.
\n" ); document.write( "The sum of all numbers in the ten-thousands place only is (2*24+3*24+5*24+7*24+8*24)*10,000 = (2+3+5+7+8)24*10,000 = 6,000,000.
\n" ); document.write( "The sum of all numbers in the thousands place only is (2*24+3*24+5*24+7*24+8*24)*1,000 = (2+3+5+7+8)24*1,000 = 600,000.
\n" ); document.write( "The sum of all numbers in the hundreds place only is (2*24+3*24+5*24+7*24+8*24)*100 = (2+3+5+7+8)24*100 = 60,000.
\n" ); document.write( "The sum of all numbers in the tens place only is
\n" ); document.write( "(2*24+3*24+5*24+7*24+8*24)*10 = (2+3+5+7+8)24*10 = 6,000.
\n" ); document.write( "The sum of all numbers in the ones place only is
\n" ); document.write( "(2*24+3*24+5*24+7*24+8*24)*1 = (2+3+5+7+8)24*1 = 600.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Therefore the sum of all the numbers is the sum all the numbers determined above, which is 6,666,600. \n" ); document.write( "
