Answer:

718

Explanation:

0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9

The second line says we cannot have 0,3,5

1,2,4,6,7,8,9

The third line says 157 has 2 numbers correct. We have eliminated the 5 so 1 and 7 are correct

1,2,4,6,7,8,9 1 and 7

The first line says 548 has one number correct so it is either 4 or 8

Line 4 says 806 has 1 number correct so the third number is 8


The three numbers are 1 7 8

Now put them in order ***

Line 1 548 One number is correct so it must be 8 **8

Line 2 tells use nothing about the order

Line 3 tells us that 2 numbers are correct but not in the right places so 1 cannot be 1st so it must be second (3rd is already taken) and there fore 7 must be 1st
