Example 14: Find the difference between the greatest and the least number that can be formed
using the digits 8, 2, 7, 4, 3 with each digit coming only once.
Solution:
The greatest number which can be formed using the digits 8, 2, 7, 4 and 3 with each
occurring only once is 87,432.
The smallest number which can be formed using the digits 8, 2, 7, 4 and 3 with each
occurring only once is 23,478.
87,432
The difference between the greatest and smallest numbers so formed
– 23,478
= 87,432 – 23,478 = 63,954
63,954
Therefore, the difference between the greatest and
smallest numbers using the digits 8, 2, 7, 4, 3 = 63,954
Example 15: A machine, on an average, manufactures 3,215 screws a day. How many screws did
it produce in the month of January 2009?
3,215

X
= 3,215 × 31
99,665
= 99,665
Therefore, the number of screws produced in the month of January 2009 = 99,665
