Answer:

120

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 5 digits that can be used to create different 5 digit numbers. We are also not allowed to repeat any numbers. Let's say we have 5 boxes to put the 5 numbers in.

Box 1

Box 2

Box 3

Box 4

Box 5

In the first box, we have 5 different choices. Since we aren't allowed to repeat any digits, the second box only has 4 different choices. And so on...

Box 1 --> 5 choices

Box 2 --> 4 choices

Box 3 --> 3 choices

Box 4 --> 2 choices

Box 5 --> 1 choice

Therefore the amount of 5 digit numbers that can be created is:

[tex]5\times4\times3\times2\times1[/tex] or 5 factorial (a factorial is all the product of all the positive integers equal to and less than the number), which is equivalent to:
