Always choose the most restricted quantities first.
Restrictions:
The first digit cannot be 0, but can only be 1,2,3 or 4.
The last digit can only be 1 or 3.
We choose the last digit 2 ways.
That leaves 3 ways to choose the first digit.
That leaves 3 ways to choose the middle digit.
Answer 2*3*3 = 18 ways.
