one digit numbers:  N_1 =1 (only 5, without the number 0)  two digits numbers:  type X0: ⇒9  type X5: ⇒8  ⇒N_2 =9+8=17  three digits numbers:  type XX0: ⇒9×8=72  type XX5: ⇒8×8=64  ⇒N_3 =72+64=136    ⇒N=1+17+136=154
$${one}\:{digit}\:{numbers}: \\ $$$${N}_{\mathrm{1}} =\mathrm{1}\:\left({only}\:\mathrm{5},\:{without}\:{the}\:{number}\:\mathrm{0}\right) \\ $$$${two}\:{digits}\:{numbers}: \\ $$$${type}\:{X}\mathrm{0}:\:\Rightarrow\mathrm{9} \\ $$$${type}\:{X}\mathrm{5}:\:\Rightarrow\mathrm{8} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{N}_{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{9}+\mathrm{8}=\mathrm{17} \\ $$$${three}\:{digits}\:{numbers}: \\ $$$${type}\:{XX}\mathrm{0}:\:\Rightarrow\mathrm{9}×\mathrm{8}=\mathrm{72} \\ $$$${type}\:{XX}\mathrm{5}:\:\Rightarrow\mathrm{8}×\mathrm{8}=\mathrm{64} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{N}_{\mathrm{3}} =\mathrm{72}+\mathrm{64}=\mathrm{136} \\ $$$$ \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{N}=\mathrm{1}+\mathrm{17}+\mathrm{136}=\mathrm{154} \\ $$

I have excluded the number zero. If zero  is also taken into account then the  result is 155.
