JEE MAIN - Mathematics (2022 - 25th June Evening Shift - No. 21)

The total number of three-digit numbers, with one digit repeated exactly two times, is ______________.
Answer
243

Explanation

$$C - 1:$$ All digits are non-zero

$${}^9{C_2}\,.\,2\,.\,{{3!} \over 2} = 216$$

$$C - 2$$ : One digit is 0

$$0,\,0,\,x \Rightarrow {}^9{C_1}\,.\,1 = 9$$

$$0,x,\,x \Rightarrow {}^9{C_1}\,.\,2 = 18$$

Total $$ = 216 + 27 = 243$$
