How many 3-digit numbers can be formed from digits 1, 2, 3 without repetition?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 6

Since all three available digits are distinct and none is zero, each permutation of 1, 2, and 3 forms a valid three-digit number. There are 3 choices for the hundreds place, 2 remaining choices for the tens place, and 1 choice for the units place. Hence the multiplication principle gives 3×2×1=3!=6. The six numbers are 123, 132, 213, 231, 312, and 321. Therefore option C is correct. The answer 3 counts only one position choice, while 9 incorrectly allows repetition through 3×3×3; 12 has no valid permutation basis. The phrase “without repetition” is essential because a digit cannot be used again after being placed.
