the first digit is 2, that′s clear.  it must contain 4 equal digits. but  what about the remaining two  digits? may they the same digit or  they must be different digits?  example: are 233332 and 233222  valid?

case 1:  in the remaining 5 digits we have  3 times the digit 2.   case 1a: type 2222XX  ⇒9×((5!)/(3!2!))=90  case 1b: type 2222XY  ⇒C_2 ^9 ×((5!)/(3!))=720  case 2: type 2XXXXY  in the remaining 5 digits we have  4 times an other digit than 2.  ⇒9×9×((5!)/(4!))=405    totally:  90+720+405=1215 numbers

how about 2XXXX2?

$${how}\:{about}\:\mathrm{2}{XXXX}\mathrm{2}? \\ $$

=9× ((5!)/(4!)) =4 5

$$=\mathrm{9}×\:\frac{\mathrm{5}!}{\mathrm{4}!}\:=\mathrm{4}\:\mathrm{5} \\ $$

Commented by mr W last updated on 06/Jan/20

this is included in 2XXXXY.  X can be one of 9 digits (0,1,3,4,...9)  Y can be one of 9 digits (0,1,2,3,4,...9)−X

$${this}\:{is}\:{included}\:{in}\:\mathrm{2}{XXXXY}. \\ $$$${X}\:{can}\:{be}\:{one}\:{of}\:\mathrm{9}\:{digits}\:\left(\mathrm{0},\mathrm{1},\mathrm{3},\mathrm{4},...\mathrm{9}\right) \\ $$$${Y}\:{can}\:{be}\:{one}\:{of}\:\mathrm{9}\:{digits}\:\left(\mathrm{0},\mathrm{1},\mathrm{2},\mathrm{3},\mathrm{4},...\mathrm{9}\right)−{X} \\ $$

o yes sir
