Question
How many three-digit numbers are there, with distinct digits, with each digit odd?

Answer

The odd number digits are 1, 3, 5, 6, 9

Total number of odd digits = 5

$\therefore$ Required number of 3 digit num bars = number of arrangenments of 5 digits by taking 3 at a time $=\ ^{5}\text{P}_3$

$=\frac{5!}{(5-3)!}$

$=\frac{5!}{2!}$

$=\frac{5\times4\times3\times2!}{2!}$

$=60$

Hence, total number of 3 digit numbers are 60.
