There are 10 basketball teams in a tournament. How many was can 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place be awarded?
I believe 10! ways, or 3628800 ways, minus a little bit because one team can't win all of the medals.
Thanks :)
10 teams could come first. For each of these, 9 could come second, making 10*9 = 90 combinations. For each of these combinations 8 could come third. Hence there are 10*9*8 = 720 ways.
