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
