Help 11
In a 10 person race, how many different outcomes are there for first, second, and third place?
A.
1,000
B.
720
C.
120
D.
30
Any 10 can finish in 1st place .... any of the remining 9 can finish second..... any of the remaining 8 can finish third....
So.....the Fundamental Counting Principle gives us
10 x 9 x 8 = 720
