An n-digit number is a positive number with exactly n digits. Nine hundred distinct n digit numbers are to be formed using only

kolbaska11 [484]

$\underbrace{3\cdot3\cdot3\cdot\ldots}_{n}\geq900\\\\
3^n\geq900\\\\
\log_3 3^n\geq \log_3900\\\\
n\geq \log_3900\\\\
n\geq\dfrac{\ln 900}{\ln 3}(\approx6.2)$

So, the least $n$ is 7.
