Re: If 6 different numbers are to be selected from integers 0 to [#permalink]

If 6 different numbers are to be selected from integers 0 to 6, how many 6-digit even integers greater than 300,000 can be composed?

Anybody with a slot method?


--- Ans will be provided later.

Thanks,
BC


No. of ways of choosing first digit = 4 (Greater than 2, Lesser than 7)
No. of ways of selecting last digit = 4 (Even numbers Greater than 2, Lesser than 7)
No. of ways of selecting remaining four digits = 7*7*7*7 (Lesser than 7)

So answer is 7*7*7*7*4*4 - 1 = 38415

Kudos Please... If my post helped.

Re: If 6 different numbers are to be selected from integers 0 to [#permalink]
Please note the "6 different numbers" in the question; numbers cannot be repeated. If you select 4 as the first integer you can not select 4 as well as the last integer. In another words if you select even as the first number, you will only have 3 options for the last number, but if you select odd number as the first number than you will have 4 options for the last number.
