How many 3-digit numbers are there, with distinct digits,

Question:

How many 3-digit numbers are there, with distinct digits, with each digit odd?

Solution:

The hundred's place can be filled by {1, 3, 5, 7, 9), i.e. 5 digits.

The ten's place can now be filled by 4 digits (as one digit is already used in the hundred's place and repetition is not allowed )

Similarly, the unit's place can be filled by 3 digits.

Total number of 3 -digit numbers $=5 \times 4 \times 3=60$
