A palindrome is a number, such as 93539, that reads the same forward and backward. How many palindromes are there between 100 and 1,000?
Explanation::It is required to find the palindromes between 100 to 1000
Hence the first digit can be chosen in 9 ways from 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 and 9
The second digit can be chosen in 10 ways, from the set 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9
but the third digit has to be the same as the 1st digit, so there is only 1 possibility.
total palindromes=9*10*1 = 90.
