उत्तर

Number of distinct digit in a passcode of a mobile phone = 6

1 2 3 4 5 6

First digit can be tried in 10 ways using the digits 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

Second digit can be tried in 9 ways

Third digit can be tried in 8 ways

Fourth digit can be tried in 7 ways

Fifth digit can be tried in 6 ways

Sixth digit can be tried in 5 ways

Therefore, the maximum number of attempts made to retrieve the passcode = 10 × 9 × 8 × 7 × 6 × 5 = 151200
