The problem's formulation in this post is INCORRECT.


Indeed, following to the given formulation, the smallest number is 1.



I perfectly understand the author's intention, but the formulation in the post DOES NOT correspond to this intention.


The standard formulation for this problem is as follows:


<pre>
    What is the smallest 6-digit integer number, which can be formed using the digits 3, 1, 5, 2, 6, 9,
    if every digit is used only once ?


    What is the greatest 6-digit integer number, which can be formed using the digits 3, 1, 5, 2, 6, 9,
    if every digit is used only once ?

 
    Find the difference between these two numbers.
</pre>

It is just a bad tradition at this forum posting wrong problems.



I always say in response, that the Math education of the problems' composers at this forum 
is from reading puzzles, not from learning Math.



It looks like they are not familiar with high standards of writing Math problems, at all.
