Since it is not mentioned in the problem, we will assume that repeating of number is allowed.
For the first wheel, you have 10 possible digits.
For the second wheel, you have 10 possible digits.
For the third wheel, you have 10 possible digits.
10 x 10 x 10 = 1000
The probability that someone randomly guesses the correct combination in his first attempt is 1/1000.

If this was without repeat, then 
10*9*8 = 720
The probability that someone randomly guesses the correct combination in his first attempt is 1/720.

We are given with
p2 + 2pq = 0.64
and another formula is
p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1
Substituting
0.64 + q2 = 1
q2 = 1 - 0.64
q2 = 0.36
q = 0.6

Another formula is
p + q = 1
p = 1 - 0.6
p = 0.4

What is asked is 2pq
p2 + 2pq = 0.64
2pq = 0.64 - 0.4^2
2pq = 0.48

There is 48% that has the heterozygous trait.
