How many 7 digit numbers can be formed using the digits 1, 2, 0, 2, 4, 2, 4?

A) 120 B) 360
C) 240 D) 424
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 360

Explanation:

There are 7 digits 1, 2, 0, 2, 4, 2, 4 in which 2 occurs 3 times, 4 occurs 2 times.

 

 Number of 7 digit numbers = 7!3!×2! = 420

 

But out of these 420 numbers, there are some numbers which begin with '0' and they are not 7-digit numbers. The number of such numbers beginning with '0'.

 

=6!3!×2! = 60

 

Hence the required number of 7 digits numbers = 420 - 60 = 360

Q:

When four fair dice are rolled simultaneously, in how many outcomes will at least one of the dice show 3?

A) 620 B) 671
C) 625 D) 567
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 671

Explanation:

When 4 dice are rolled simultaneously, there will be a total of 6 x 6 x 6 x 6 = 1296 outcomes.

 

The number of outcomes in which none of the 4 dice show 3 will be 5 x 5 x 5 x 5 = 625 outcomes.

 

Therefore, the number of outcomes in which at least one die will show 3 = 1296 – 625 = 671
