Case (i) : zero not taken 

Now we have to select seven digits from 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 so ways are { }^9 C_7

From 7 digit select the largest digits as d and from remaining 6 , we can select three digits a, b, c\: \: in { }^6 C_3 ways.

Hence number of such numbers are ={ }^9 \mathrm{C}_7 \cdot{ }^6 \mathrm{C}_3

Case (ii) : zero taken then 

0 must be at last place, then number of such numbers are { }^9 \mathrm{C}_6 .{ }^5 \mathrm{C}_3

So total ways \begin{aligned} { }^9 C_7 \cdot{ }^6 C_3+{ }^9 C_6 \cdot{ }^5 C_3 & ={ }^9 C_2 \cdot{ }^6 C_3+{ }^9 C_3 \cdot C_3 \\ \\& =1560 \end{aligned}
