How many integers, greater than 999 but not greater than 4000, can be formed with the digits 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4, if repetition of digits is allowed?

(A) 375
(B) 376
(C) 499
(D) 500
(E) 501


We are looking at numbers from 1000 to 4000 (inclusive):


There are 4 digits to be filled: ___ ___ ___ ___

Let us consider till 3444 first

Note: First of all, the last number before 4000 will be 3444 since 4 is the largest digit to be used.
We consider till 3444 first - till here, the hundreds, tens and units positions an be filled by all the numbers 0, 1, 2, 3, 4):

The first place can be filled with 1 or 2 or 3 => 3 ways
The 2nd place can be filled using 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4 => in 5 ways
The 3rd place can be filled using 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4 => in 5 ways
The 4th place can be filled using 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4 => in 5 ways

=> Total numbers = 3 x 5 x 5 x 5 = 375

We need to consider 4000 as well : 1 more number

Thus, we have: 375 + 1 = 376

(A) 375
(B) 376
(C) 499
(D) 500
(E) 501

We see that each number must be a 4-digit number and the first digit (i.e., the thousands digit) of each number must be 1, 2, 3, or 4.

Since the digits can be repeated, if the first digit is 1, there are 5 choices for the second, third and fourth digits. Therefore, there are 5 x 5 x 5 = 125 numbers with 1 as the first digit. There are also 125 numbers when the first digit is 2 or 3. However, there is only 1 number when the first digit is 4, namely 4,000.

Therefore, there are 3 x 125 + 1 = 376 such numbers.
