1. Problem Description

We are asked to find the number of 3-digit integers greater than 430 that can be formed using the digits 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, where repetition of digits is allowed.

2. Solution Steps

Let the 3-digit integer be represented as abcabc, where a,b,c{0,1,2,3,4,5}a, b, c \in \{0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5\}.
Since the number must be greater than 430, we consider the possible values for aa:
* Case 1: a=4a = 4. Then b>3b > 3, or b=3b = 3 and c>0c > 0.
* If a=4a=4 and b{4,5}b \in \{4, 5\}, there are 2 choices for bb. Then cc can be any of the 6 digits {0,1,2,3,4,5}\{0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5\}. So there are 2×6=122 \times 6 = 12 possibilities.
* If a=4a = 4 and b=3b = 3, then cc must be greater than

0. $c \in \{1, 2, 3, 4, 5\}$. So there are 5 choices for $c$.

So, when a=4a = 4, the number of possibilities is 12+5=1712 + 5 = 17.
* Case 2: a{5}a \in \{5\}. Then bb and cc can be any of the 6 digits.
* If a=5a = 5, there are 6 choices for bb and 6 choices for cc. So there are 1×6×6=361 \times 6 \times 6 = 36 possibilities.
* Case 3: a{1,2,3}a \in \{1, 2, 3\}. These are not possible, because the number must be greater than
4
3
0.
* Case 4: If the number is a 3 digit number, the first digit cannot be zero. Hence, aa can be chosen from the set {1,2,3,4,5}\{1, 2, 3, 4, 5\}.
The total number of 3-digit integers greater than 430 is the sum of the possibilities from the above cases.
Total possibilities = 17+36=5317 + 36 = 53.

3. Final Answer
