NDA 2 2024 GAT Question Paper (01-Sep-2024)
The correct answer is
625

To determine how many 4-digit numbers exist where all the digits are odd, we need to identify the possible choices for each digit position in a 4-digit number.

An odd digit can be one of the following numbers: 1, 3, 5, 7, or 9. Therefore, for any digit position, there are 5 possible choices.

Let's analyze each of the digit positions in the 4-digit number:

  1. Thousands Place: Since we're looking at a 4-digit number, the thousands place cannot be zero. It must be odd, and we have 5 choices (1, 3, 5, 7, 9).
  2. Hundreds Place: The hundreds place can also have any of those 5 odd numbers.
  3. Tens Place: Similarly, the tens place has 5 possibilities.
  4. Units Place: The units place also has 5 choices.

Using the basic principle of counting, the total number of 4-digit numbers with all digits odd is the product of the number of choices for each digit place.

5 \times 5 \times 5 \times 5 = 5^4 = 625

Thus, there are 625 4-digit numbers where all digits are odd. Therefore, the correct answer is: 625.
