How many 4 digit numbers can be formed using 0,1,2,3,4,5 and divisible by 4
Read Solution (Total 20)
-
- since a number cannot start with 0 so, 1st place of of 4 digit number can be filled in 5 ways i.e., 1,2,3,4,5.
second place of 4 digit number can be filled in 6 ways i.e., 0,1,2,3,4,5
since 4 digit numbers should be divisible by 4 so possibility of last 2 places are (04,12 20,24,32,40,52) i.e., 7 possibilities.
Therefore total number of 4 digut number divisible by 4 are- 5*6*7=210 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(17) No(7)

Therefore total number of 4 digut number divisible by 4 are- 5*6*8=240

- HERE WE CAN FORM 4 DIGIT NOS AND THESE ARE DIVISIBLE BY 4 SO LAST 2 DIGITS ARE DIVISIBLE BY 4 SO COMBINATIONS ARE 04,12,20,24,32,40,52(7COMBINATIONS ) SO NO OF NUMBERS ARE 7*4*3(3rd digit is can fill with 4 ways,and 4 th digit is 3 ways )so 7*4*3=84

- @JAGAN is correct but he also counts numbers starting with 0.
04,12,20,24,32,40,52(7COMBINATIONS ). 04,20,40 = 3*4*3 = 36
12,24,32,52 = 4*3*3 = 36.
Total = 36+36= 72 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(7) No(1)

- total 9 combination s of last two digit 00,20,40,12,32,42,04,24,44 so 9 combination oof last 2 digit
and in first position zero wont come so 5 possibilty for first place and 2 nd place 6 possibilty
tottlay === 9 mul 6 mul 5=270
correct me if am wrong soon bcos i have exam tmrw - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(3)
- for 04 20 40 last two digit in3 ways ,2 digit in 4ways 1 digit in 3 ways=3x4x3
for 12 24 32 52 last two digit in 4 ways and if 0 in 2digit then 1 way and 1 digit in 3 ways =4x1x3
and if 2 digit does not have 0 then 2 digit in 3ways(no 0) and 1 digit(no 0) in 2 ways=4x3x2
36+12+24=72ans - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(1)

- Ans will be 63 .
For divisible by 4, last two digit should be divisible by 4 .
so there two cases first one number two number having with 0 - 04, 20, 40,
and second case numbers having without 0 - 12 24 32 52,
so( 3*3*3 ) + (3*3*4) = 63 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(4)
- rani which is right
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- Ans should be 343
Bcozz 7 combination of last 2 digit no which are divisible by 4 .then 7^n-1=7^4-1=343 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(4)
- _ _ _ _
First digit can not be 0 hence First digit can be 5!=120
Remaining three digits 5*4*3=60
4 digit numbers can be =120*60=7200 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(3)
- Solution:
Test of divisibility for 3
The sum of the digits of any number that is divisible by '3' is divisible by 3.
For instance, take the number 54372.
Sum of its digits is 5+4+3+7+2=21
As 21 is divisible by '3', 54372 is also divisible by 3.
There are six digits viz., 0,1,2,3,4 and 5. To form 5-digit numbers we need exactly 5 digits. So we should not be using one of the digits.
The sum of all the six digits 0,1,2,3,4 and 5 is 15. We know that any number is divisible by 3 if and only if the sum of its digits is divisible by '3'.
Combining the two criteria that we use only 5 of the 6 digits and pick them in such a way that the sum is divisible by 3, we should not use either '0' or '3' while forming the five digit numbers.
Case 1
If we do not use '0', then the remaining 5 digits can be arranged in:
5! ways=120 numbers.
Case 2
If we do not use '3', then the arrangements should take into account that '0' cannot be the first digit as a 5-digit number will not start with '0'.
The first digit from the left can be any of the 4 digits 1,2,4 or 5
Then the remaining 4 digits including '0' can be arranged in the other 4 places in 4! ways.
So, there will be 4×4! numbers =4×24=96 numbers.
Combining Case 1 and Case 2, there are a total of 120+96= 216, 5 digit numbers divisible by '3' that can be formed using the digits 0 to 5.

- Thousand's place cannot be zero-5c1 ways,hundred's place -6c1.
Now last 2 digits should be multiple of 4 including 00; 04 to 96 and should be less than 100(since 25*4=100) .So,there are 25 possibilities.Therefore total number of ways is 5*6*25=750. - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- divisiblity by 4 means last digits must divisible by 4 possibilities (04,12,24,20,32,40,44,52) total 8 possibilities first digit should not be zero then fisrt digit should be 5c1 second digit 6c1
then ans is 5c1*6c1*8=240 - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- if repeation is allowed then the ans is=240 otherwise 84
