The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine which of the given statements are necessary to identify a three-digit number where each digit is different from the other. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Problem**: We need to find a three-digit number where each digit is unique. The digits can range from 0 to 9, but since it’s a three-digit number, the hundreds place cannot be 0. 2. **Analyzing Statement I**: - Statement I states that each of the digits of the given number is a multiple of 3. - The possible digits that are multiples of 3 from 0 to 9 are: 0, 3, 6, and 9. - However, since it is a three-digit number, we cannot use 0 in the hundreds place. - Thus, the possible digits are 3, 6, and 9. 3. **Analyzing Statement II**: - Statement II states that the digit in the unit's place is 50% less than that in the hundred's place. - Let’s denote the digit in the hundreds place as X. According to the statement, the unit's place digit would be X - (50% of X) = X - (X/2) = X/2. - Since X must be a multiple of 3 (from Statement I), we can check the possible values: - If X = 3, then the unit's place would be 3/2 = 1.5 (not valid). - If X = 6, then the unit's place would be 6/2 = 3 (valid). - If X = 9, then the unit's place would be 9/2 = 4.5 (not valid). - Thus, if X = 6, the unit's place is 3. The remaining digit for the tens place must be 9 (since all digits must be different). 4. **Analyzing Statement III**: - Statement III states that none of the digits is zero. - Since we already established that the digits we are considering (3, 6, and 9) do not include 0, this statement does not add any new information. 5. **Conclusion**: - From Statement I, we identified the possible digits as 3, 6, and 9. - From Statement II, we determined the specific arrangement of these digits to form the number 693. - Statement III is not necessary since it does not affect the outcome. ### Final Answer: The necessary statements to answer the question are: - Statement I and Statement II.
