i think that do read large numbers you should look at the place values. From right to left the place values are ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousands, hundred thousands, millions, and so on.
If the digits may not be repeated, there are 6x5x4x3x2x1 = 720 numbers, If digits can be repeated, the answer is 6x6x6x6x6x6 = 46,656 numbers If zero is ong the available digits but is excluded from the first place. 5x6x6x6x6x6=38,880 numbers
Arabic numbers need less digits to represent large numbers (in general). When doing arithmetic operations on the numbers, Arabic is easier because of the place values can line up.
There are a total of 900 3-digt numbers (100 thru 999); Of these there are 9x9x8 = 648 numbers that do not contain repeating digits (first position: 9 possibilities, second place 9 possibilities; the 10 digits minus the one used in the first place. and third place 8 possibilities; 10 digits minus the two used in the first and second places) So, there should be 900-648=252 3-digit numbers with at least one repeating digit.
