Greatest five digit number that can be formed using $7,9,0,5,2$ is _____
A. $79052$
B. $90752$
C. $97520$
D. $97052$

Answer 1

Hint: Take the given numbers and arrange all the numbers in the form of descending order and then frame the number as per the requirement for the resultant term. Consider all the five given numbers to frame the greatest number.

Complete step-by-step answer:
Here we are asked to get the greatest number –
So, first of all arrange the given numbers in descending order.
Descending order can be defined as the series with the largest or the greatest numbers and which ends with the least or the smallest number.
Descending order: $9,7,5,2,0$
Combine the numbers to form the required number.
The largest number so formed will be equal to $97520$
Hence, from the given multiple choices – the option C is the correct answer.
So, the correct answer is “Option C”.

Note: Do not get confused between the ascending and descending order. Ascending order can be defined as the series with the smallest or the least numbers and which ends with the biggest or the largest number. Greatest number means any other number framed from that particular five number will be less than it.
