Question 127353: Can someone help me with this problem. I have part of the answer, but not the rest.
At an annual flower show, 6 different entries are to be arranged in a row.
a) How many different arrangements of the entries are possible? Answer: 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 720 different arrangements
b) If the owners of the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place entries will be awarded prizes of $100, $50, and $25 respectively, how many ways can the prizes be awarded?
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 6 ways to pick the 1st prize, 5 ways to pick the second prize, and 4 ways to pick the third prize. 6 X 5 X 4 = 120
