How many 6 digit numbers can be formed using the digits 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 (repetitions allowed) such that the number reads the same from left to right or from right to left (e.g. 134431)?
(1) 6
(2) 12
(3) 24
(4) 36
Can anyone help me with it's solution?
As mentioned by Carcass too, choice E is missing and that may be the correct answer..
Way to go about it...
6 places... The last three are dependent on first three.. .... xyzzyx
So first , second and third can be any of the 5. - 1,2,3,4,5
So 5*5*5 and of course the last three will be same as first three so 5*5*5*1*1*1=125
These are of course called palindromes
