Q156 / 270 · NDA 2018 (Phase 2) · Mathematics
Where $A^{\prime}$ is the complement of $A$.
Let $x$ be the number of integers lying between 2999 and 8001 which have at least two digits equal. Then x is equal to
- A2480
- Correct answerB2481
- C2482
- D2483
Solution
Number of numbers between 2999 and 8001
$=8001-2999-1=5001$
\begin{array}{|l|l|l|l|}\hline 3 & & & \\\hline\end{array}
Number of numbers with all digit distinct and having 3 as starting digit
$=9 \times 8 \times 7=504$
Number of numbers with all digit distinct and having 4 as starting digit.

Similarly number of numbers with starting digit 5, 6 and 7 respectively are 504, 504 and 504. Total numbers $=5 \times 504=2520$ Hence, required number $=5001-2520=2481$

Similarly number of numbers with starting digit 5, 6 and 7 respectively are 504, 504 and 504. Total numbers $=5 \times 504=2520$ Hence, required number $=5001-2520=2481$
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
