If it starts with an even

There are 4 first digit possibilities (not 5 becasue it can's start with 0)  , 4 third digits 3 fifth digits etc  so that is    4*4!  *   (now for the odd digits)  4!

 

If it starts with an odd then there will be  5!*4! different ones

 

Now add them together.

 

4*4!*4! + 5!*4!
