If an employee ID code must consist of 3 non-repeating digits and each digit is in the code must be a prime number, how many ID codes can be generated?
(a) 4
(b) 10
(c) 22
(d) 24
(e) 26

The possible single-digit primes are 2, 3, 5, and 7.

Since the order of the digits in the code is important, we use permutations. Thus, the number of ways in which 3 non-repeating prime digits can selected is 4P3 = 4 x 3 x 2 = 24.

Answer: D

Hi sony1000,

IF we were allowed to have repeating digits, then the number of options for each digit would be the SAME. Thus, the total number of codes would be (4)(4)(4) = 64.
