उत्तर

The digits in the sequence do not repeat.

Number of ways of selecting the first digit = 10

Number of ways of selecting the second digit = 9

Number of ways of selecting the third digit = 8

Total number of possible sequences

10C1 × 9C1 × 8C1

⇒ 10 × 9 × 8

⇒ 720

Of all the possible sequences, only one sequence is successful.

∴ Number of unsuccessful sequences = 720 − 1 = 719.
