Permutations...

In case of multiple questions within a query, please post each question individually and let us know where you are getting stuck so that we would be able to explain things better.

At least one digit being repeated, so we are EXCLUDING distict 4 digit numbers.

To find total numbers with repeatation of digits,

first digit can be selected in out of four, i.e. 1,2,5,7 in 4 different ways,

Similarly for second, third and fourth,

Total numbers possible = 4x4x4x4 = 256.

Number of numbers with distinct 4 digits, = 4! = 24

The required numbers are = 256 - 24 = 232
