Solution
The correct option is B 1236 The given digits are 3, 6, 2, and 1.
Let us place the digits in a place value chart from the smallest to the largest.
The smallest among the four digits is 1. It should be placed in the ones place.
The next smallest number is 2. It should be placed in the tens place.
The next smallest number is 3. It should be placed in the hundrends place.
The remaining digit, 6, should be placed in the ones place.
Hence, the smallest number that can be formed from the digits = 1236
