How many four-digit, positive integers are there where each digit is a prime number?
Ty to whoever answers :)
It should be 24 aka 4! since there are that many arrangements of four digit postivies intigers. If you still don't understand let me know :)

Here's what I found....
The prime digits wil be 2,3,5,7
Cases :
Case 1 : all the digits are the same = 4 ways to do this
Case 2 : three of the digits are the same
4 ways to select the same three digits
Then, select any one of the three remaining digits to occupy any of four places
4 * 3 * 4 = 48
Case 3: two of the digts are the same
4 ways two select the same two digits
Choose any two of the remaining three primes 3C2 = 3 to occupy any two of four positions 4C2 = 6
4 * 3 * 6 = 72
Case 4 : all the digits are different = 4! = 24
Total = 4 + 48 + 72 + 24 = 148
