A 210 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
B 120 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
C 96 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
D 216 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

Solution

CASE 1: If last digit is 0, number of 5 digit can be formed by using the 1, 2,3,4& 5 = 5× 4×3×2 = 120 CASE 2: If last digit is 5, number of 5 digit can be formed by using the 0, 1, 2, 3 & 4 = 4× 4×3×2 = 96 (as a number can never start with 0) So total number of digits = 120 + 96 = 216
