10^9

this question is a permutation so if there are 9 digits then to find answer you need to do 10*10*10*10*10*10*10*10*10

10 digits is he reason for the 10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That is, you have 10 choices for the first 'slot', [0-9], and the next choices are non dependent on the previous, so you have 10 for the next 9. 10 * 10 * ... = 10^9
