Find the number of numbers, greater than a million that can be formed with the digit 2, 3, 0, 3, 4, 2, 3.



Answer -

Given:

The digits 2, 3, 0, 3,4, 2, 3

Total number of digits= 7

We know, zero cannotbe the first digit of the 7 digit numbers.

Number of 6 digitnumber = n!/ (p! ├Ч q! ├Ч r!) = 6! / (2! 3!) Ways. [2 is repeated twice and 3 isrepeated 3 times]

The total number ofarrangements = 6! / (2! 3!)

= [6├Ч5├Ч4├Ч3├Ч2├Ч1] /(2├Ч3├Ч2)

= 5├Ч4├Ч3├Ч1

= 60

Now, number of 7 digitnumber = n!/ (p! ├Ч q! ├Ч r!) = 7! / (2! 3!) Ways

The total number ofarrangements = 7! / (2! 3!)

= [7├Ч6├Ч5├Ч4├Ч3├Ч2├Ч1] /(2├Ч3├Ч2)

= 7├Ч5├Ч4├Ч3├Ч1

= 420

So, total numberswhich is greater than 1 million = 420 тАУ 60 = 360

Hence, total number ofarrangements of 7 digits (2, 3, 0, 3, 4, 2, 3) forming a 7 digit number is 360.
