Given,
Three-digit number to be formed which are divisible by 3 using the digits 1,3,5,8 and repetition is allowed,
Now taking case , where all digits are same, we get
(1,1,1), (3,3,3), (5,5,5), (8, 8, 8)
4 ways
Now taking case , where 2-digit are same and one is distinct, we get
(5,5, 8)
= 3 ways, (8, 8, 5)
3 ways
Now taking case , where all are distinct, we get
(1,3, 5)
6 ways, (1, 8,3)
6 ways
So, total ways will be 4 + 3 + 3 + 6 + 6 = 22
