c) 16
d) 36
approach bhi
10^6 = 2^6*5^6

2^x*2^y*5^v*5^w form hoga like @YouMadFellow said.

And then

Number of non zero integer values satisfying the below equations
x+y = 6. -> 5.
v+w = 6. -> 5.

x,y and v,w can be interchanged, without counting extra cases, so 3 cases for each power.
Total 3*3 = 9 values.

Or you could count.

2^1*2^5 -> 5^1*5^5 or 5^2*5^4 or 5^3*5^3 and so on....


@Omkarp : 3*3 walla part plz explain karna a lil bit more

What is the probability that a 4 digit number of type abcd (a, b, c, d all different) is a multiple of 11?
Sirjee.. mere 418 favorable cases aa rhe hai.. so i guess probability would be (418/9000)!!
ab bataao sahi jawaab! @YouMadFellow aap bhi confirm karo!!

Dekho, for each combination of powers of 2, there will 3 combinations of powers of 5.
And there are 3 such combinations for 2.

So, 3*3.

Nahi samjhe toh ask again, I have infi patience.

A. The medical technologies that are pouring out of research laboratories
give moralists little respite for reflection, little chance to discover the
long-run moral consequences of a particular response to a new medical
possibility.
B. The application of scientific theory to matters of human utility can
involve values in a less tractable way when the values concerned are
ethical ones.
C. Ethical norms were developed in human societies that changed only
very slowly, and where genuinely new sorts of ethical problems rarely
arose.
D. The explosive growth in the field of medical ethics over the past few
decades is an indication of where the most difficult issues seem to lie.
E. The question then is: Is it moral? rather than: Is it rational? and
decision theory no longer helps, unless perhaps one is a utilitarian in
ethics.
F. Whether it is the prolongation of life of the terminally ill, or genetic
manipulation to bring about the desired kind of offspring, it is at least in
part, the novelty of the questions that makes ethical response so hesitant
or so divided.
