Not sure, if this question is already discussed on the forum or not.

digits available 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9..!! digits that we don't want to appear in a number are 2 and 5.
-,-,- ; left most digit can be filled with any of the remaining 7 digits in 7 ways(1,3,4,6,7,8,9);
digit in the ten's place can be filled with (0,1,3,4,6,7,8,9)any of these 8 numbers in 8 ways, similarly digit at the unit's place can be filled with any of these (0,1,3,4,6,7,8,9) eight number in 8 ways,
hence total number of ways=7*8*8=448 hence C
