The number of integers, between 100 and 1000 having the sum of their digits equals to 14, is ______. [2024]
(70)
Number between 100 to 1000 are 3-digit number.
Let number such that
where and
Case I : All three digits are same ie.,
, which is not possible
Case II : Two digits are same i.e.,
(a, c) = {(3, 8), (4, 6), (5, 4), (6, 2), (7, 0)}
In each subcase, number of ways of forming a 3-digit number =
There are 5 such cases as (a, c) have 5 elements in which 0,7,7 is included
So, total number of 3 digits numbers when 2 digits are same
Case III : All digits are different
(a, b, c) = {(1, 4, 9), (2, 4, 8), (2, 3, 9), (1, 5, 8), (3, 4, 7), (2, 5, 7), (1, 6, 7), (3, 5, 6), (5, 9, 0), (6, 8, 0)}
Total number of 3 digits number formed by above triplet =
Total number of required number = 56 + 14 = 70
