□□□□ ThHTO
Since, leftmost place i.e thousand's place cannot have zero. So, there are 9 ways to fill thousand's place.
Since, repetition is not allowed , so hundreds place can be filled by remaining 9 digits .
So, hundred's place can be filled in 9 ways.
Similarly, to fill tens place, we have 8 digits remaining.
So,tens place can be filled by 8 ways.
Similarly, to fill ones place, we have 7 digits remaining.-->7 ways
So, required number of ways in which four digit numbers can be formed from the given digits is
9×9×8×7=4536
