Solution

The unit place can be filled (using the 4 digits) in 4 ways after filling the unit place since repetition of digits is not allowed that digit should be excluded.

So the 10’s place can be filled in (4 – 1)3 ways and the 100’s place can be filled in (3 – 1)2 ways

So the unit place, 10’s and 100’s places together can be filled in 4 × 3 × 2 = 24 ways

(i.e) The number of 3 digit numbers = 4 × 3 × 2 = 24 ways
