The Total Sum of $5$ Digit no. which can be formed with the Digit $0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7$.

[a] when repetition of digit is allowed

when repetition of digit is not allowed

Hi Jacks, :)

I'll answer the first part of your question. By the same logic you should be able to complete the second part.

Note that we cannot have zero as the last digit (counting digits from right to left) of the number. Hence for the last digit we have only 7 possibilities. Suppose if we fix 0 as the first digit then we have \(7 \times 8^3=3584\) numbers, and the sum of the first digits of all those numbers will add up to \(0\times 7\times 8^3=0\). Similarly if we take 1 as the fist digit the sum of all those numbers will add up to \(1\times 7\times 8^3=3584\). Generally, if we add up all the ones places of the numbers the sum would be,

\[3584\times (0+1+2+3+4+5+6+7)\]

Similarly if we add up all the tenth places of the numbers the sum would be,

\[3584\times (0+10+20+30+40+50+60+70)=35840\times (0+1+2+3+4+5+6+7)\]

Continuing with this reasoning we get the total sum as,

\[(3584+35840+358400+358400+8^4)\times (0+1+2+3+4+5+6+7)=21288960\]
 
Thanks Sudhakara.My Try for (II)First we will form a $5$ Digit no. using $\{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7\}$

(It also include a $4$ Digit no. bcz $0$ at extreme left. )

So Total no.,s e $ \displaystyle = \binom{8}{5} \times 5! = \frac{8!}{3!}$Each digit has an equal chance of being selected into any particular possition.

So, for example, the digit 2 will occupy the units position in $\displaystyle \frac{1}{8}$ of the arrangements.

So The sum of the arrangement each of $5$ position is $\displaystyle = \frac{1}{8}\left(0+1+2+3+4+5+6+7\right)\cdot \frac{8!}{3!}$

So Total Sum of $5$ Digit no. including $0$ at Thousant place is $\displaystyle = \frac{1}{8}\left(0+1+2+3+4+5+6+7\right)\cdot \frac{8!}{3!}\cdot (1111)$

Now We Will Calculate Sum of $4$ Digit no. Using $1,2,3,4,5,6,7$

Using same Idea We Get $\displaystyle = \frac{1}{7}.\frac{7!}{3!}\cdot \left(1+2+3+4+5+6+7\right)\cdot (1111)$

So Total Sum of $5$ Digit no. is $\displaystyle = \frac{1}{8}\left(0+1+2+3+4+5+6+7\right)\cdot \frac{8!}{3!}\cdot (1111) - \frac{1}{7}.\frac{7!}{3!}\cdot \left(1+2+3+4+5+6+7\right)\cdot (1111)$

Namaste & G'day Postulate: A strongly-knit team wins on average over a less knit one Fundamentals: - Two teams face off with 4 players each - A polo team consists of players that each have assigned to them a measure of their ability (called a "Handicap" - 10 is highest, -2 lowest) I attempted to measure close-knitness of a team in terms of standard deviation (SD) of handicaps of the players. Failure: It turns out that, more often than, a team with a higher SD wins. In my language, that...
Hi all, I've been a roulette player for more than 10 years (although I took time off here and there) and it's only now that I'm trying to understand the physics of the game. Basically my strategy in roulette is to divide the wheel roughly into two halves (let's call them A and B). My theory is that in roulette there will invariably be variance. In other words, if A comes up 5 times in a row, B will be due to come up soon. However I have been proven wrong many times, and I have seen some...
