Clearly the number must be a 7 digit number only.

Fixing the first digit as, we can place another 1 in any of the other 6 places available. So we have 6 numbers in this case.

The other possible number is 2 followed by six 0's. (this is what most of you miss out in the exam)

Hence totally 7 numbers are possible.
