How many 8-digit telephone numbers can be constructed using the digits 0 to 9 if each number starts with 270 and n digit appears more than once?

Given:8 digit telephone number starts with 270 .


To find: How many 8-digit telephone numbers can be constructed?



There are 10 digits between 0 to 9,and three of them are utilized in filling up the first three digits i.e.270 of the 8 digit phone number,so remaining number of digits=10-3=7,and this need to be used in filling up the remaining 8-3=5 places of the telephone number.


i.e.the remaining 5 places need to filled up with any one of:1,3,4,5,6,8,9


So, number of ways=7 × 6 × 5 × 4 × 3=2520.
