place, one of them in Second place and one of them in Third place.
Work out how many possible outcomes there could be at the end of their game.

Respuesta :

The number of possible outcomes there could be at the end of their game is 6 outcomes

This is a permutation problem since it required arrangement

If Alex, Toby, and Samuel are playing a game together and at the end, they will make a classification with one of them in first  place, one of them in Second place and one of them in Third place, this can be done in 3! ways

Since n! = n(n-1)(n-2)!

Hence 3! = 3(3-1)(3-2)

3! = 3 * 2 * 1

3! = 6 ways

Hence the number of possible outcomes there could be at the end of their game is 6 outcomes
