How many 4-digit numbers can be formed from 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8 without repetition and starting with 6?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 120

This problem uses permutations with a fixed first position. Because every number must start with 6, the first digit is already determined and contributes one choice. After using 6, six digits remain: 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, and 8. Three more positions must be filled without repetition. There are 6 choices for the second digit, 5 for the third, and 4 for the fourth. By the multiplication principle, the total number is 1 × 6 × 5 × 4 = 120. Equivalently, the remaining digits can be arranged in 6P3 ways, which is 6 × 5 × 4 = 120. Thus option A is correct. Option B omits one available choice, while C and D do not represent the required three-position permutation after fixing the first digit.
