The number of numbers, strictly between 5000 and 10000 can be formed using the digits 1,3,5,7,9 without repetition, is

  1. 6
  2. 12
  3. 120
  4. 72

Solution

Given,

Numbers 1,3,5,7,9

Now to form number between 5000-10000

_5,7,9_4 ways_3 ways_2 ways

Here at 1000's place should be taken by 5, 7 & 9

So for 1000's place there will be 3 ways,

Now for hundredth place there will be 4 ways,

For ten's place there will be 3 ways,

And for unit place there will be 2 ways,

So total ways will be 3×4×3×2=72 ways.
