Answer : 3. "192"
Explanation :

Answer: C) 192 Explanation: We are having with digits 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6 and numbers greater than 4000 are to be formed, no digit is repeated.   The number can be 4 digited but greater than 4000 or 5 digited.   Number of 4 digited numbers greater than 4000 are4 or 5 or 6 can occupy thousand place => 3 x P34 = 3 x 24 = 72.    5 digited numbers = P55 = 5! = 120  So the total numbers greater than 4000 = 72 + 120 = 192
