You can put this solution on YOUR website! less then 1000 means upto 3 digit numbers and at unit place either 0 or 5.
 
 Single digit numbers......  only 5  i.e  no. of ways = 1
 
 Two digit numbers...
 when 0 on unit place , no. of ways = 9
 
 when 5 on unit place, no. of ways = 8
 
 total no. of ways for 2 digit = 17
 
 Three digit numbers..
 
 when 0 on unit place , no. of ways 9P2 = 9*8 = 72
 
 when 5 on unit place, no. of ways  = 9P2 - 8 = 64
 ( in 8 numbers 0 will be on first place, so discard it)
 total no. of ways for 3 digit = 136
 
 
 
 total no. of ways =  1 + 17 + 136 = 154
