Question
The number of different seven digit numbers that can be written using only the three digits 1, 2 and 3 with the condition that the digit 2 occurs twice in each number is-
- 7P2 . 25
- 7C2 . 25
- 7C2 . 52
- None of these
Hint:
Here, we will find the number of ways of the arrangement of the digit if two occur exactly twice in each seven-digit number by using the combination formula. Then by using the powers, we will find the number of ways of arranging the remaining five-digit number. We will then multiply the number of the arrangement of digits in both the cases to get the number of different seven-digit numbers.
Formula Used:
We will use the following formula:
1) Combination is given by the formula

2) Factorial is given by the formula
n! = n
(n-1)!
The correct answer is: 7C2 . 25
Detailed Solution
We are given the number of different seven-digit numbers that can be written using only three digits 1,2 and 3. Therefore,

We are given that the digit two occurs exactly twice in each number.
Thus, the digit two occurs twice in the seven digit number.
Now, we will find the number of ways of arrangement of the digit two in the seven digit number by using combination.


We will now find the total number of seven digit number by multiplying the number of ways of arrangement in both the cases. Therefore






Simplifying the expression, we get

Multiplying the terms, we get

Therefore, the number of different seven-digit numbers that can be written using only three digits 1,2 and 3 is 672.
We know that there is not much difference between permutation and combination. Permutation is the way or method of arranging numbers from a given set of numbers such that the order of arrangement matters. Whereas combination is the way of selecting items from a given set of items where order of selection doesn’t matter. Both the word combination and permutation is the way of arrangement. Here, we will not use permutation because the order of toys is not necessary.
