(A) To form a number between $500$ and $600$,the hundreds place must be occupied by the digit $5$.Since the digits cannot be repeated,we have $5$ remaining digits $(1, 2, 3, 4, 6)$ to fill the tens and units places.We need to choose and arrange $2$ digits out of the remaining $5$ digits.This is given by the permutation formula $^nP_r = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!}$.Here,$n = 5$ and $r = 2$,so $^5P_2 = \frac{5!}{(5-2)!} = \frac{5 	imes 4 	imes 3!}{3!} = 5 	imes 4 = 20$.Therefore,there are $20$ such numbers.

How many numbers lying between $500$ and $600$ can be formed with the help of the digits $1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6$ when the digits are not to be repeated?
