since three digit number can not start with 0 at hundred's place, therefore number of ways to write it will be = 9_{c_{1}} \times 2

later, for remaining non zero digits taken two at a time can be written in 9_{c_{1}} \times 1 ways

now, the other ways of making three digit numbers can be written in 9_{c_{2}} \times{ 2}_{c_{1}} and finally as there is repetition of two numbers in three digit number the total possible ways will be multiplied by \frac{3 !}{2 !}

\mathrm{0 a a+100 a+a a b \text { or } a b b}

\mathrm{9_{c_{1}} \times 2+9_{c_{1}} \times 1+9_{c_{2}} \times{ 2}_{c_{1}} \times \frac{3 !}{2 !}}

\mathrm{18+9+216}\\

\mathrm{=243}

Hence the answer is \mathrm{243}
