Question

D) IF 16 PEOPLE PARTICIPATED IN A RACE, HOW MANY WAYS CAN THEY PLACE 1st, 2nd, AND THIRD? +

Answer 1

Answer:   3360

=========================================================

Explanation:

There are 16 ways to pick the first place winner, 15 for second place, and 14 for third place. Each time we count down by 1 because no single person can be in two (or more) places at once.

Overall, this leads to 16*15*14 = 3360 different permutations
