You can put this solution on YOUR website! Fifty people purchase raffle tickets. Three winners are selected random. If the first prize is $1,000, the second prize is $500, and the third is $100, in how many ways can the prizes be awarded? ---------------------
 Pick 3 people: 50C3 ways
 ---
 Award the prizes: 3! = 6 ways
 ----
 Total # of ways (50C3)*6 = 19600*6 = 117600 ways
 ================
