Answer:

1716 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Number of entrants = 13

The number of ways of attaining first, second and third position :

The number of ways of attaining first ; only 1 person can be first ;

Using permutation :

nPr = n! ÷(n-r)!

13P1 = 13! ÷ 12! = 13

Second position :

We have 12 entrants left :

nPr = n! ÷(n-r)!

12P1 = 12! ÷ 11! = 12

Third position :

We have 11 entrants left :

nPr = n! ÷(n-r)!

11P1 = 11! ÷ 10! = 11

Hence, Number of ways = (13 * 12 * 11) = 1716 ways
