given 4 digits 2,4,5,7 listed in numerical order from smallest to largest
so first pick 2 -> arrange 4,5,7 -> 3! = 6 combinations
2nd pick 4 -> arrange 2,5,7 -> 3!= 6 combinations
12 combinations done out of 17
now pick 5 -> arrange 2,4,7 in numerical order
(13th. 5247),(14th. 5274),(15th. 5427),(16th. 5472),(17th. 5724)
so the answer is (B 5724)
