Permutations and Combinations

Given:

• The lift goes up to the $10^{\text {th }}$ floor.

• The lift does not stop at $1^{\text {st }}, 2^{\text {nd }}, 3^{\text {rd }}$ floors.

• So, the persons can get down only at the remaining floors.

$ 4,5,6,7,8,9,10 \Rightarrow 7 \text { floors } $

• Now, all three persons must exit at three different floors (no two can get down at the same floor).

• Also, the three persons are distinct, so who gets down where matters.

First, choose which 3 floors (out of 7) will be used:

$ { }^7 C_3=\frac{7 \cdot 6 \cdot 5}{{3} \cdot 2 \cdot 1}=35 $

Next, assign (arrange) the 3 distinct persons to these 3 chosen floors:

Number of arrangements of 3 persons:

$ 3!=6 $

So, total number of ways:

$ \text { Total ways }={ }^7 C_3 \times 3!=35 \times 6=210 $

To find numbers of number greater than 5000 and less than 9000 so number will start with 5 or 9 of the form 5 abc and $a, b, c \in\{0,1,2,5,9\}$ also the number is divisible by 3 .

This means $5+\mathrm{a}+\mathrm{b}+\mathrm{c}$ is divisible by 3

so the sum $\mathrm{a}+\mathrm{b}+\mathrm{c}$ is of the type $3 \mathrm{n}+1$.

unit place c determined by the sum of previous 3 places.

rem(a $+b)=$ remainder of $a+b$

rem(a+b)	combination (a,b)	value of c	total = combination (a, b) × c(choice)
0	(0, 0), (0, 9), (9, 0), (9, 9), (1, 2), (2, 1), (5, 1), (1, 5)	1	8 × 1 = 8
1	(0, 1), (9, 1), (1, 0), (1, 9), (2, 2), (2, 5), (5, 2), (5, 5)	0, 9	8 × 2 = 16
2	(0, 2), (0, 5), (9, 2), (9, 5), (2, 0), (2, 9), (5, 0), (5, 9), (1, 1)	2, 5	9 × 2 = 18

Total = $8+16+18=42$

for set $S$ : 4-digit numbers $a b c d$ with $a>b>c>d$

digits are chosen from $\{0,1,2, \ldots, 9\}$

since order is strictly fixed, any 4 distinct digits chosen will form exactly one such number. number of ways to choose 4 digits from 10 is ${ }^{10} C_4$

$ n(S)=\frac{10 \times 9 \times 8 \times 7}{4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}=210 $

for set $P$ : 5-digit numbers with product of digits $=20$

possible sets of digits (using digits 1-9):

case 1: $\{5,4,1,1,1\}$

number of arrangements $=\frac{5!}{3!}=20$

case 2: $\{5,2,2,1,1\}$

number of arrangements $=\frac{5!}{2!2!}=30$

$ n(P)=20+30=50 $

calculating final value.

$ n(S)+n(P)=210+50=260 $

the value of $n(S)+n(P)$ is 260 .

For, $m+n=K^2$ for some prime $K$.

$ \begin{aligned} & m+n \in\{2,3, \ldots, 100\} \\ & m+n=4,9,25,49 \end{aligned} $

$m+n=4 \Rightarrow 3$ pairs

$m+n=9 \Rightarrow 8$ pairs

$m+n=25 \Rightarrow 24$ pairs

$m+n=49 \Rightarrow 48$ pairs

$\Rightarrow 83$ pairs

$\Rightarrow 1333$

$\begin{aligned} & m=6 a, n=6 b \\ & \text { So } \operatorname{gcd}(m, n)=6 \Rightarrow \operatorname{gcd}(a, b)=1 \\ & m=6 a \geq 10 \Rightarrow a \geq\left[\frac{10}{6}\right]=2 \\ & m=6 a \leq 99 \Rightarrow a \leq\left[\frac{99}{6}\right]=16 \end{aligned}$

So $a, b \in\{2,3, \ldots, 16\}$, and we count how many coprime pairs $(a, b)$ with $a< b, \operatorname{gcd}(a, b)=1$

$\begin{aligned} & a=2 \Rightarrow b=3,5,7,9,11,13,15 \Rightarrow 7 \\ & a=3 \Rightarrow \mathrm{~b}=4,5,7,8,10,11,13,14,16 \Rightarrow 9 \\ & a=4 \Rightarrow b=5,7,9,11,13,15 \Rightarrow 6 \\ & a=5 \Rightarrow \mathrm{~b}=6,7,8,9,11,12,13,14,16 \Rightarrow 9 \\ & a=6 \Rightarrow \mathrm{~b}=7,11,13 \Rightarrow 3 \\ & a=7 \Rightarrow b=8,9,10,11,12,13,15,16 \Rightarrow 8 \\ & a=8 \Rightarrow \mathrm{~b}=9,11,13,15 \Rightarrow 4 \\ & a=9 \Rightarrow \mathrm{~b}=10,11,13,14,16 \Rightarrow 5 \\ & a=10 \Rightarrow b=11,13 \Rightarrow 2 \\ & a=11 \Rightarrow b=12,13,14,15,16 \Rightarrow 5 \\ & a=12 \Rightarrow b=13,17 \times \rightarrow \text { only } 13 \text { is valid } \Rightarrow 1 \\ & a=13 \Rightarrow b=14,15,16 \Rightarrow 3 \\ & a=14 \Rightarrow b=15, \Rightarrow 1 \\ & a=15 \Rightarrow b=16 \Rightarrow 1 \end{aligned}$

$\begin{aligned} & \text { Total }=7+9+6+9+3+8+4+5+2+5+1 \\ & +3+1+1=64\end{aligned}$

Firstly, by this rule, we note:

$ P(W_1) = p $

$ P(W_2) = 2p $

$ P(W_3) = 4p $

…

$ P(W_n) = 2^{n-1}p $

To find the initial probability $ p $, consider the total probability must sum to 1 across all 120 possible words (since $ 5! = 120 $):

$ \sum_{n=1}^{120} P(W_n) = 1 $

This is a geometric series sum where:

$ p(1 + 2 + 2^2 + \ldots + 2^{119}) = 1 $

Since the series sum $ 1 + 2 + 2^2 + \ldots + 2^{119} $ is equal to $ 2^{120} - 1 $, we have:

$ p(2^{120} - 1) = 1 \Rightarrow p = \frac{1}{2^{120} - 1} $

Thus, the probability for the $ n $-th word is:

$ P(W_n) = \frac{2^{n-1}}{2^{120} - 1} \quad \text{(i)} $

Next, determine the position of "CDBEA". Starting from the first letter:

Words beginning with 'A': $ 4! = 24 $

Words beginning with 'B': $ 4! = 24 $

Words beginning with 'C':

CA*: $ 3! = 6 $

CB*: $ 3! = 6 $

CDA$ **: 2! = 2 $

CDBA*: $ 1! = 1 $

Summing these, the position of "CDBEA" is the 64th word.

Substitute into equation (i):

$ P(\text{CDBEA}) = P(W_{64}) = \frac{2^{63}}{2^{120} - 1} $

Given $ P(\text{CDBEA}) = \frac{2^\alpha}{2^\beta - 1} $, we find:

$ \alpha = 63 $

$ \beta = 120 $

Thus, the sum $ \alpha + \beta = 63 + 120 = 183 $.

When numbers are uniformly distributed, half of them have even digit sums and half have odd digits sums.

Number of 7-digit numbers with even digit sum =

$\frac{1}{2} \cdot 9 \cdot 10^6=4.5 \cdot 10^6$

Note that $9 \cdot 5 \cdot 10^5=4.5 \cdot 10^6$

$m+n=9+5=14$

(i) Single letter is used, then no. of words $=5$

(ii) Two distinct letters are used, then no. of words

$\Rightarrow 3 a=14$ not possible

$\Rightarrow 2 a+c=14$

$\begin{aligned} & (a, c) \in\{(3,8),(4,6),(5,4),(6,2),(7,0)\} \\ & \Rightarrow\left(\frac{3!}{2!}\right) \text { ways } \Rightarrow 5 \times 3-1 \\ & =15-1=14 \end{aligned}$

Case III

To solve this problem, we need to find the number of 3-digit numbers formed using the digits 2, 3, 4, 5, and 7, with no repetition of digits allowed, and these numbers should not be divisible by 3. Let's break down the solution step-by-step:

1. Calculating the total number of 3-digit numbers without repetition:

The number of ways to form a 3-digit number from 5 unique digits (2, 3, 4, 5, 7) without repetition can be calculated using permutations:

The total number of permutations for choosing 3 digits out of 5 and arranging them is given by:

$5P3 = \frac{5!}{(5-3)!} = \frac{5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}{2 \times 1} = 5 \times 4 \times 3 = 60$

So, there are 60 possible 3-digit numbers that can be formed from the digits 2, 3, 4, 5, and 7 without repetition.

2. Finding the 3-digit numbers divisible by 3:

A number is divisible by 3 if the sum of its digits is divisible by 3. Let's consider the sums of every combination of these three digits to find out which sums are divisible by 3:

Possible sums of combinations:

• 2 + 3 + 4 = 9 (divisible by 3)
• 2 + 4 + 7 = 13
• 2 + 5 + 7 = 14
• 2 + 3 + 5 = 10
• 2 + 3 + 7 = 12 (divisible by 3)
• 3 + 4 + 5 = 12 (divisible by 3)
• 3 + 4 + 7 = 14
• 3 + 5 + 7 = 15 (divisible by 3)
• 4 + 5 + 7 = 16

The combinations whose sums are divisible by 3 are:

• 2, 3, 4
• 2, 3, 7
• 3, 4, 5
• 3, 5, 7

Since the sum of the digits is divisible by 3 for these combinations, any permutation of these sets will yield a number divisible by 3:

The number of 3-digit numbers that can be formed from each set of 3 digits is:

$3! = 6$

So, the total number of 3-digit numbers divisible by 3 is:

$4 \text{ sets} \times 6 \text{ permutations per set} = 24$

3. Calculating the 3-digit numbers not divisible by 3:

To find the 3-digit numbers not divisible by 3, we subtract the number of those divisible by 3 from the total number of 3-digit numbers:

$60 - 24 = 36$

Therefore, the number of 3-digit numbers that can be formed using the digits 2, 3, 4, 5, and 7 without repetition, and which are not divisible by 3, is equal to 36.

The problem involves choosing 15 questions out of a total of 20 available questions, with the constraint that at least 4 questions must be chosen from each of the three sections A, B, and C. To evaluate the total number of ways a student can select these questions, we need to consider every possible combination of questions from sections A, B, and C that sum up to 15 questions while respecting the constraints.

Section A has 8 questions, Section B and C each have 6 questions. The student must choose at least 4 questions from each section, which satisfies the minimum requirement. However, since the student is to attempt a total of 15 questions, there are several combinations to consider, as outlined below:

• Choosing 4 questions from A, 5 from B, and 6 from C
• Choosing 4 questions from A, 6 from B, and 5 from C
• Choosing 7 questions from A, 4 from B, and 4 from C
• Choosing 6 questions from A, 5 from B, and 4 from C
• Choosing 6 questions from A, 4 from B, and 5 from C
• Choosing 5 questions from A, 5 from B, and 5 from C
• Choosing 5 questions from A, 6 from B, and 4 from C
• Choosing 5 questions from A, 4 from B, and 6 from C

Let the 4-digit ATM pin code be represented by the digits $abxy$, where all digits are different, the greatest digit is 7, and the sum of the first two digits is equal to the sum of the last two digits: $a + b = x + y$.

Since the greatest digit is 7, the possible digits for the pin code are $0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,$ and $7$.

1. Let's denote the sum of the first two digits and the sum of the last two digits as $\lambda$. Since the largest digit is 7, we can analyze different possible values for $\lambda$.

We will analyze different possible values for $\lambda$ and the corresponding possible pairs of digits:

- $\lambda = 7$: The pairs of digits that have a sum of 7 are $(0,7),(7,0),(1,6),(6,1),(2,5),(5,2),(3,4),(4,3)$. Since 7 must be present, we consider the pairs with 7: $(0,7),(7,0)$.

When the pair $(0,7)$ is chosen, the other two digits can be any one of the remaining pairs: $(1,6),(6,1),(2,5),(5,2),(3,4),(4,3)$. For each of these pairs, there are 2 possible pin codes: $07xy$ and $07yx$, where $x$ and $y$ are the digits from the chosen pair. In total, there are 12 possible pin codes for this case.

When the pair $(7,0)$ is chosen, the other two digits can also be any one of the remaining pairs: $(1,6),(6,1),(2,5),(5,2),(3,4),(4,3)$. For each of these pairs, there are 2 possible pin codes: $70xy$ and $70yx$, where $x$ and $y$ are the digits from the chosen pair. In total, there are 12 possible pin codes for this case.


So, there are 24 possible pin codes for $\lambda = 7$.



- $\lambda = 8$: The pairs of digits that have a sum of 8 are $(1,7),(7,1),(2,6),(6,2),(3,5),(5,3)$. Since 7 must be present, we consider the pairs with 7: $(1,7),(7,1)$.

When the pair $(1,7)$ is chosen, the other two digits can be any one of the remaining pairs: $(2,6),(6,2),(3,5),(5,3)$. For each of these pairs, there are 2 possible pin codes: $17xy$ and $17yx$, where $x$ and $y$ are the digits from the chosen pair. In total, there are 8 possible pin codes for this case.

When the pair $(7,1)$ is chosen, the other two digits can also be any one of the remaining pairs: $(2,6),(6,2),(3,5),(5,3)$. For each of these pairs, there are 2 possible pin codes: $71xy$ and $71yx$, where $x$ and $y$ are the digits from the chosen pair. In total, there are 8 possible pin codes for this case.

So, there are 16 possible pin codes for $\lambda = 8$.



- $\lambda = 9$: The pairs of digits that have a sum of 9 are $(2,7),(7,2),(3,6),(6,3),(4,5),(5,4)$. Since 7 must be present, we consider the pairs with 7: $(2,7),(7,2)$.

When the pair $(2,7)$ is chosen, the other two digits can be any one of the remaining pairs: $(3,6),(6,3),(4,5),(5,4)$. For each of these pairs, there are 2 possible pin codes: $27xy$ and $27yx$, where $x$ and $y$ are the digits from the chosen pair. In total, there are 8 possible pin codes for this case.

When the pair $(7,2)$ is chosen, the other two digits can also be any one of the remaining pairs: $(3,6),(6,3),(4,5),(5,4)$. For each of these pairs, there are 2 possible pin codes: $72xy$ and $72yx$, where $x$ and $y$ are the digits from the chosen pair. In total, there are 8 possible pin codes for this case.

So, there are 16 possible pin codes for $\lambda = 9$.



- $\lambda = 10$: The pairs of digits that have a sum of 10 are $(3,7),(7,3),(4,6),(6,4)$. Since 7 must be present, we consider the pairs with 7: $(3,7),(7,3)$.

When the pair $(3,7)$ is chosen, the other two digits can be any one of the remaining pairs: $(4,6),(6,4)$. For each of these pairs, there are 2 possible pin codes: $37xy$ and $37yx$, where $x$ and $y$ are the digits from the chosen pair. In total, there are 4 possible pin codes for this case.

When the pair $(7,3)$ is chosen, the other two digits can also be any one of the remaining pairs: $(4,6),(6,4)$. For each of these pairs, there are 2 possible pin codes: $73xy$ and $73yx$, where $x$ and $y$ are the digits from the chosen pair. In total, there are 4 possible pin codes for this case.

So, there are 8 possible pin codes for $\lambda = 10$.



- $\lambda = 11$: The pairs of digits that have a sum of 11 are $(4,7),(7,4),(5,6),(6,5)$. Since 7 must be present, we consider the pairs with 7: $(4,7),(7,4)$.

When the pair $(4,7)$ is chosen, the other two digits can be any one of the remaining pairs: $(5,6),(6,5)$. For each of these pairs, there are 2 possible pin codes: $47xy$ and $47yx$, where $x$ and $y$ are the digits from the chosen pair. In total, there are 4 possible pin codes for this case.

When the pair $(7,4)$ is chosen, the other two digits can also be any one of the remaining pairs: $(5,6),(6,5)$. For each of these pairs, there are 2 possible pin codes: $74xy$ and $74yx$, where $x$ and $y$ are the digits from the chosen pair. In total, there are 4 possible pin codes for this case.

So, there are 8 possible pin codes for $\lambda = 11$.



- $\lambda = 12$: The only pair of digits that have a sum of 12 is $(5,7)$. Since 7 must be present, this case is not possible.

- $\lambda = 13$: The only pair of digits that have a sum of 13 is $(6,7)$. Since 7 must be present, this case is not possible.

- $\lambda = 14$: The only pair of digits that have a sum of 14 is $(7,7)$. Since all the digits must be different, this case is not possible.

Adding up all the possible pin codes for each value of $\lambda$, we get:

$16 + 24 + 24 + 16 + 8 = 72$

Therefore, the maximum number of trials necessary to obtain the correct code is 72.

A number is divisible by 6 if it is divisible by both 2 and 3. A number is divisible by 2 if its last digit is even, which means it must be either 2 or 4 from the given digits. A number is divisible by 3 if the sum of its digits is divisible by 3.

The problem involves forming nine-digit numbers from three digits a, b, c which are in Arithmetic Progression (AP), used three times each, such that at least once, three consecutive digits are in AP.

We have the two possible sequences for the AP :

1. a, b, c
2. c, b, a

This shows the flexibility in ordering the three digits that are in AP in our nine-digit number.

The next step is to choose the location of this sequence of three numbers within our nine-digit number.

Since there are nine places in our number and our sequence takes up three places, we have seven different starting points for our sequence : it can start at the first place, the second place, and so on, up to the seventh place.

Therefore, the number of ways to select 3 consecutive places out of the 9 places for the AP sequence is 7.

However, we also have to account for the fact that our sequence can be in one of two orders (a, b, c or c, b, a). So, we multiply the number of starting points by 2 to get $^7C_1 \times 2 = 14$ ways to arrange the sequence within our nine-digit number.

The remaining 6 digits (two 'a', two 'b', two 'c") can be arranged in $\frac{6!}{2!2!2!}$ ways.

Therefore, the total number of such nine-digit numbers is $^7C_1 \times 2 \times \frac{6!}{2!2!2!} = 1260$.

This problem can be solved using the concept of derangements, which is a permutation of objects where no object appears in its original position. In this case, we have 5 students who should not sit in their allotted seats.

The formula for calculating the number of derangements (also known as subfactorials) is :

D(n) $ =n !\left[\frac{1}{0!}-\frac{1}{1 !}+\frac{1}{2 !}-\frac{1}{3 !}+\frac{1}{4 !}-\ldots \ldots . .+(-1)^n \frac{1}{n !}\right] $

Where n is the number of students, in this case, 5.

Using the formula, let's calculate the derangements for 5 students :

D(5) = $5! \left(\frac{1}{0!} - \frac{1}{1!} + \frac{1}{2!} - \frac{1}{3!} + \frac{1}{4!} - \frac{1}{5!}\right)$

D(5) = $120 \left(1 - 1 + \frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{24} - \frac{1}{120}\right)$

D(5) = $120 \left(0 + \frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{24} - \frac{1}{120}\right)$

D(5) = $120 \left(\frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{24} - \frac{1}{120}\right)$

D(5) = $120 \left(\frac{60}{120} - \frac{20}{120} + \frac{5}{120} - \frac{1}{120}\right)$

D(5) = $120 \left(\frac{44}{120}\right)$

D(5) = 44

So, there are 44 ways in which none of the students sits on the allotted seat.

We have, four digits are $2,1,2,3$.

Total numbers when 1 is at unit digit $=\frac{3 !}{2 !}=3$

Total number when 2 is at unit digit $=3 !=6$

Total numbers when 3 is at unit digit $=\frac{3 !}{2 !}=3$

Sum of digits at unit place $=3 \times 1+6 \times 2+3 \times 3=24$

$\therefore$ Required sum $=24 \times 1000+24 \times 100+24 \times 10+24 \times 1$

$=24 \times 1111=26664$

Given that digits are $1,2,3,4,5,6,7$

Total permutations $=7$!

Let $p=$ Number which containing string 153

$q=$ Number which containing string 2467

$ \begin{array}{ll} & \therefore n(p)=5! \times 1 \\\\ & \Rightarrow n(q)=4! \times 1 \\\\ & \Rightarrow n(p \cap q)=2! \end{array} $

$ \begin{aligned} & \therefore n(p \cup q)=n(p)+n(q)-n(p \cap q) \\\\ & = 5 !+4 !-2 !=120+24-2=142 \end{aligned} $

$\therefore n$ (neither string 143 nor string 2467)

$ =7 !-142=5040-142=4898 $

Let, $n$ be the total number of couples who participated in the tournament.

According to the question, $2 \times{ }^n C_2 \times{ }^{n-2} C_2=840$

$ \begin{aligned} & \Rightarrow{ }^n C_2 \times{ }^{n-2} C_2=420 \\\\ & \Rightarrow \frac{n !}{2 !(n-2) !} \times \frac{(n-2) !}{(n-4) ! 2 !}=420 \\\\ & \Rightarrow \frac{n(n-1)(n-2)(n-3)}{4}=420 \end{aligned} $

Put $n=8$ satisfied the equation.

So, $n=8$

Hence, total number of players who participated
in the tournament $=2 \times 8=16$

Given, word is UNIVERSE

There are $3^{20}$ ways to distribute the oranges to the 3 children.

Number of ways one child receives no orange :

Choose 1 child out of the 3 to not receive any orange in ${ }^3 C_1 = 3$ ways. Distribute 20 oranges to the remaining 2 children in $2^{20}$ ways. However, we've included the scenarios where the 2 children each get all the oranges. So, we subtract the 2 ways where one of the two remaining children gets all the oranges. $ { }^3 C_1(2^{20} - 2) $

Number of ways two children receive no orange :

Choose 2 children out of the 3 to not receive any oranges in ${ }^3 C_2 = 3$ ways. The third child will receive all 20 oranges in $1^{20} = 1$ way. $ { }^3 C_2 \times 1^{20} = 3 $

A number will be divisible by 6 iff the digit at the unit place of the number is divisible by 2 and sum of all digits of the number is divisible by 3 .

We have to make 4 digit numbers using the digits, 1, 2, 3 and 5.

The unit digit of the 4 digit number will be 5.

Now, the sum (x + y + z) should be of the (3p + 1).

Therefore, the possible cases are

(x, y, z) = (1, 1, 5), (1, 1, 2), (2, 2, 3), (2, 3, 5), (3, 3, 1) and (5, 5, 3).

So, total arrangements are

For $(2,3,5) \rightarrow 3 !=6 ;$

For $(3,3,1) \rightarrow \frac{3 !}{2 !}=3 ;$

$\therefore$ Total possible numbers starts with 3 and 7 are = ⁵C₁ $\times$ ⁵C₁ $\times$ ⁵C₁ = 5³

(4) Number starts with 357 :

$\therefore$ Total possible numbers starts with 357 are = ⁵C₁ $\times$ ⁵C₁ = 5²

(5) Number starts with 355 :

$\therefore$ Total possible numbers starts with 355 are = ⁵C₁ $\times$ ⁵C₁ = 5²

$\therefore$ Total possible numbers starts with 3537 are = ⁵C₁ = 5

$\therefore$ Total possible numbers starts with 3535 are = ⁵C₁ = 5

(8) Next number is 35337 which is the required number.

$\therefore$ Position of the number 35337 is = 5⁴ + 5⁴ + 5³ + 5² + 5² + 5 + 5 + 1 = 1436

Total number of ways $=20+25+25+25+25=120$

Note : In first case total number of ways = 20 as in the question given that the chosen $x$ and $y$ are distinct integers each time. So when you choose x as 5 then you can't choose y as 5. Possible values of y are (10, 15, 20, 25). So, here four possible pairs of (x, y) possible { (5, 10), (5, 15), (5, 20), (5, 25)}.

Similarly, four possible pairs of (x, y) possible each time when x = 10, 15, 20 and 25.

$ \therefore $ Total number of ways in the first case = 5 $ \times $ 4 = 20.
