OpenStudy (junyang96):

I don't get it. Let's start over again. I'm guessing my sample space to be 6P3. Is that correct?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

total 3 digit numbers that can be formed from given set of numbers = 6x6x6 = 6^3

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

total 3 digit numbers without the digit 5 would be 5x5x5 = 5^3 take the ratio for part a
