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.
