u can use permutation to solve this, make three boxes where u can fill 4 digits- 1, 2, 5, 6 and 8. now in the 1st box u can fill 4 digits and in the 2nd one, 4 and so on, therefore u can in total make 4^3 = 64 numbers (if repetition of numbers is allowed)

Repetition isnt allowed cause "by choosing three different numbers from the following list"

#

You have to think about "how many possibilities do you have for the first digit of your 3-digit numbers ?"

#

Then "How many possibilities for the second digit and then for the last digit"

im take 3 random numbes and rearrange them randomly if the comonation is unique then n += 1 if its not re do it and if this happens lets say 10,000 times without adding 1 to n then lets output the final awnser
