How many 3-digit numbers can be formed by using the digits 0, 1, 3, 5, 7 while each digit may be repeated any number of times?
100’s place 10’s place Unit’s place
There are total 5 digits available ,for forming a 3 digit number,in 100’s place only 1,3,5,7 can be used(0 not included because it will lead to formation of 2 digit number.)
In 10’s place any of the 5 can be used and same is the case with one’s place.
So total number of 3 digit numbers formed=4 × 5 × 5=100
