Answer:

The total number of possibilities are 60.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

There are 6 digits and 3,7,9 are odd ones.

To Find:

How many possibilities are there for the rock's age

Solution:

Here condition is that number should start with odd digit

so there 3 number only as odd(3,7,9)

So it leaves 3 repeating  numbers i.e.2

So permutation of 5 numbers with 3 odd numbers

So possible arrangement will be

nPr

n=5 ,r=3

So 5P3=5!/3!

And finally for all possibilities as

=3*(5!/3!)

=3*(20)

=60

The sum of three numbers is 18. If every number is a prime number, what are the three numbers?
sleet_krkn [62]
The three numbers are 2, 5, and 11.

The sum of 3 numbers is 18.        2 + 5 + 11 = 18

Since the problem states that every number is a prime number, then the number must be a natural number greater than 1 that has no positive divisors other than 1 and itself.

2 / 1 = 2  OR  2 / 2 = 1  These numbers are prime numbers because their divisors
5 / 1 = 5  OR  5 / 5 = 1            are 1 and itself.
11/1 = 11 OR 11/11 = 1
