The number must be multiple of both  2 & 3

For 3, sum of digits must be divisible by 3

1+2+3+5+6+7= 24, so can remove  3 or  6

\left ( 1,2,5,6,7 \right )\rightarrow \quad -----\left [ 2 \right ]= 2\times 4!= 2\times 24= 48
\left ( 1,2,3,5,7 \right )\rightarrow \quad -----\left [ \underline{2} \right ]= 4!= 24

Total = 48+24= 72
