I am getting it as 60.

The units can be one among 1,3 and 5.
The tens can be among the remaining 5 because 1 is already chosen and no repetition is allowed.
The hundreds can be among the remaining 4 by the same reasoning.

So, the required = 4*5*3 = 60

Agree with Malellac. In this case it is important to figure out that the constraint is on units digit and then just pick the remaining numbers.

5 x 4 x 3 = 60 ways. Unit digit can only be 1, 3, 5 so 3 ways.

The other way around for the tenth and hundredth digits can also do it right. I got 60 as well.
