How many 4-digit numbers can be formed from 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8 without repetition and starting with 3?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 60

This is an ordered arrangement problem with a fixed first digit. Since the number must start with 3, the first position has exactly one choice and 3 cannot be used again. The remaining available digits are 1, 2, 4, 6, and 8, giving five choices for the second position. After filling that position, four choices remain for the third position, and then three choices remain for the fourth. Therefore the multiplication principle gives 1 × 5 × 4 × 3 = 60 numbers. Equivalently, the last three places can be filled in 5P3 = 5 × 4 × 3 = 60 ways. Thus option B is correct. Option A incorrectly uses 5!, while C and D do not count all valid ordered selections of three remaining digits.
