How many 6 digit numbers can be formed using the digits 1 to 6 without repetition such that the number is divisible by the digit at its units place?

Find the number of 6-digit numbers using the digits 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 without repetition. How many of these numbers are divisible by 5

Solution

There are 6 different digits and we have to form 6-digit numbers, i.e., n = 6, r = 6

If no digit is repeated, the total numbers with 6-digits can be formed = nPr

= 6P6

= 6!

= 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1

= 720.

Since the number is divisible by 5, the unit's place of 6-digits number can be filled in only one way by the digit 5.

Remaining 5 positions can be filled from the remaining 5 digits in 5P5  ways.

Hence, the total number of 6-digit numbers divisible by 5 = 1 x 5P5 = 5!

= 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1

= 120.

Solution

The correct option is A 180000First place from left cannot be filled with 0. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Next four places can be filled with any of the 10 digits. After filling the first five places, the last place can be filled in following ways. CASE I : If the sum of first 5 digits is of 5k type, then rightmost digit would be either 0or5.so, units place can be filled in 2 ways CASE II : If the sum of first 5 digits is of 5k+1 type, then rightmost digit would be either 4or9 .so, units place can be filled in 2 ways CASE III : If the sum of first 5 digits is of 5k+2 type, then rightmost digit would be either 3or8.so, units place can be filled in 2 ways CASE IV : If the sum of first 5 digits is of 5k+3 type, then rightmost digit would be either 2or7.so, units place can be filled in 2 ways CASE V: If the sum of first 5 digits is of 5k+4 type, then rightmost digit would be either 1or6.so, units place can be filled in 2 ways ∴total such numbers possible =9×104×2=180000

How many 6 digit numbers can be formed from 1 to 6 which are divisible by 4?

Thus, 96 6-digit numbers can be formed that are divisible by 4.

How many 6 digit numbers can be formed using the digits without repetition with repetition?

The digits are all non-zero: Choose 6 symbols from {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9} and permute them: (96)⋅6! =60480.

How many six digit numbers can be formed using the digits 1 to 5 without repetition such that the number is divisible by the digit at its units place?

So the number of 6 digit numbers divisible by the number in the units place is: 384+24+18=426. Was this answer helpful?

How many 6 digit numbers can be formed by first 6 whole numbers with repetition which are divisible by 2?

Hence, a total of 19,440 6-digit numbers, divisible by 2, can be formed by the given set of numbers, with repetition allowed.
