Correct answer: 52
-
We need to form three-digit even numbers using the digits without repetition.
-
For a number to be even, its unit digit must be one of:
-
We count case by case.
Case 1: Unit digit = 0
- Fix the unit digit as .
- The hundreds digit can be chosen from , so there are choices.
- After choosing the hundreds digit, the tens digit can be chosen from the remaining digits.
So, number of such numbers:
Case 2: Unit digit = 4
- Fix the unit digit as .
- The hundreds digit cannot be , and cannot be .
- So the hundreds digit can be chosen from , giving choices.
- The tens digit can then be chosen from the remaining digits (including if unused).
So, number of such numbers:
Case 3: Unit digit = 6
- Fix the unit digit as .
- The hundreds digit cannot be , and cannot be .
- So the hundreds digit can be chosen from , giving choices.
- The tens digit can then be chosen from the remaining digits.
So, number of such numbers:
- Total number of three-digit even numbers:
Therefore, the required number is
