As we can see that there are 6 digits in 100,000 and its is the smallest number we can have in 6 digit. So all numbers less than 100,000 will be 1-digit, 2-digits, 3-digits, 4-digits and 5-digits numbers made from 1,2,3,4 with repetitions allowed.
Case 1: All 1 -digit numbers
We will have numbers 1,2,3,4. So total 4 integers for this one
Case2: All 2-digit numbers
We can fill 1 digit place in 4 ways ( can choose any number out of 1,2,3,4). Then again we can fill 2nd digit place in 4 ways ( can choose any number out of 1,2,3,4). So all together we will have 4 × 4 = 16 integers for this one
Case3: All 3-digits numbers
We can fill 1 digit place in 4 ways ( can choose any number out of 1,2,3,4). Then again we can fill 2nd digit place in 4 ways ( can choose any number out of 1,2,3,4). similarly we can fill 3rd digit place in 4 ways (again any number out of 1,2,3,4). So all together we will have 4 × 4 × 4 = 64 integers for this one.
Case4: All 4-digit numbers
Again we can fill 1st digit place in 4 ways, then 2nd digit place in 4 ways, 3rd digit place in 4 ways, 4th digit place in 4 ways. So all together there will be 4 × 4 × 4 × 4 = 256 integers for this one.
Case5: All 5-digit numbers
Again we can fill 1st digit place in 4 ways, then 2nd digit place in 4 ways, 3rd digit place in 4 ways, 4th digit place in 4 ways, 5th digit place also in 4 ways. So all together there will be 4 × 4 × 4 × 4 × 4 = 1024 integers for this one
Adding results of all 5 cases we get,
Total integers = 4 + 16 +64 + 256 + 1024 = 1364 integers.
So thats the final answer
